The British Academy for Training and Development offers the Public-Private Partnership Management (PPPM) course. This is a complete programme to train you in the understanding of private-public partnership (PPPs) and your skills in managing PPPs. The programme also covers the legal frameworks governing PPPs, project structuring and financing models, and puts an emphasis on risk allocation and management in partnership agreements. Furthermore, it covers the strategies in contract negotiation as well as monitoring and evaluation of PPP projects, including best practices for ensuring transparency and accountability. In the face of growing investment needs and constrained budgets, many governments are increasingly looking to the private sector to bring expertise and financing to infrastructure delivery; often through the use of PPPs. However, despite the growing trend among governments to consider PPPs as a procurement and financing model for infrastructure projects, the contract management of these projects through their construction and operations phases is one of the more overlooked areas of infrastructure delivery.

By the end of this course, attendees will be ready to deal with the intricacies of public-private partnership and lead successful collaboration for sustainable development.
