VfM and business cases – one day module

£349 (exc. VAT) per delegate

This course module looks at the application of VfM thinking across Business Case construction. In the classic ‘5 case’ model (Strategic, Economic, Financial, Commercial and Management cases) we often find that VfM is side-lined to some cost-benefit analysis in the economic case. However, for successful business cases leading to projects that are truly Value for Money, the VfM thinking must be threaded through the whole. This module explores the mindset and approaches needed to achieve this.

* Online-blended delivery allows you the flexibility to engage with the course presentations at a time that suits your work and life pressures.

Being ‘blended’ it also retains the important value-add interactive element through the engaging live-online session(s) consisting of

  • presentation overview and clarification questions,
  • broader Q&A and discussions to extend the learning and put into your work context.

You can also access support via email or a short call with the trainer if you get stuck as you go through the on-demand The on-demand elements are available as videos on this website with a supplied login. If you would like access to a page with short extracts from two of the modules please contact me.

The total content offered is at least equivalent to the ‘fully live’ delivery. The live-sessions would normally be 1.5 hours for the half day modules and 2.5 hours for the full day training.

If you prefer fully live-online or in-person training, please click here for my direct email and get in touch  – this still happens a lot and offers good value for groups.
