Essential training for all public servants to enable good governance and effective budget bids. Having this baseline understanding is likely to increase the quality of bids, reduce effort, increase efficiency and effectiveness and save time for all involved in seeking funding. Would recommend for all levels, even those who have worked on bids in the past.
