Training & Capacity Building

Our training and capacity building programmes address the Centre's Objective 2: Strengthening skills and shaping attitudes. We recognize that innovation and wealth creation are anchored on the ability of actors to adapt to a continuously changing environment. In order to compete, actors need to constantly learn new skills and update their knowledge bases. Our training programmes focus on strengthening capabilities for innovation, entrepreneurship and decision-making.

We appreciate that the emergence of new technologies, new methods, new processes, new policies and a changing business climate produces new challenges and opportunities that make capability building an ever present need. We collaborate with national and international partners (particularly R&D actors; universities and other training institutions) to conduct relevant, tailor-made training aimed at strengthening both individual and institutional capabilities.
