What's involved?
You'll gain immediate access to 11 purposefully designed chapters, with over 40 lessons, each developed with practicality in mind. Using my background of working in East Africa for the last 5 years with some of the largest -- and smallest -- organizations, I’ve translated my insider experience into content which you'll find easy to understand - and more importantly - to implement.
Have you read about organizations such as Amnesty International helping prisoners of conscience? Or heard news reports of the World Food Program delivering food to drought zones? When you hear about these types of work, do you also want to join? To do work with social impact? To deeply immerse in different cultures? To make a difference in the world? What is it really like to work in this sector? Especially for entry-level jobs? How do you find out if this is for you? What kinds of conditions will you have to face, professionally and personally? Find out about all of this, and more, here.
If you're looking for an effective and honest course that equips you to stand out amongst your peers and get a head start in development work, I personally guarantee this is the number one course for you.
