Comments
“Very experienced facilitator who was engaging and interesting, which kept everyone interested in what could have been a very dry topic.”
“Was an enjoyable day providing me with additional knowledge/skills that I can apply in my organisation.”
“The content was delivered in a stimulating and engaging way. The facilitator explained concepts that I had previously been aware of (SWOT) but he explained how they can be used to write an effective business case and develop our service. He made finance and economics interesting and understandable (!) and I now understand better the difference between the two and the importance of having them both in a business case. I now feel like I could put together a clear and coherent business case and use the tools that I learnt in this workshop in a wider context in my job.”
“Fantastic course, could have done with longer. David was an excellent tutor who clearly knew his stuff. Well worth investing the time.”
“The analytical techniques were very useful, in particular the SWOT analysis, aspects of which I had not covered before in any previous similar training.”
“David Bailey was very good with his time-keeping.”

The Green Book is HM Treasury guidance for Central Government, setting out a framework for the appraisal and evaluation of all policies, programmes and projects. It sets out the key stages in the development of a proposal from the articulation of the rationale for intervention and the setting of objectives, through to options appraisal and, eventually, implementation and evaluation. It describes how the economic, financial, social and environmental assessments of a proposal should be combined and aims to ensure consistency and transparency in the appraisal process throughout government.
