Training of Algeria SME managers

Full description of the project

The issues and challenges brought about by the interdependence of economies in the context of trade globalization have radically transformed the rules of management and business management. It is in this very difficult context that managers must adopt new management styles and radically change their behavior.

Obviously, the impact of an action to upgrade a company through a better structural and functional organization, or even by upgrading technologically, remains insufficient if not useless if it is not accompanied by a plan and a training program tailored to the identified needs. It is now commonly accepted by specialists that training must be a priority in the measures to accompany the changes in SMEs. This is a fundamental area for their long-term development, as well as a major lever for improving management skills.

Aware of the role and the specific place of training in the support programs for SMEs, EDPME has provided systematic support to the various actions of upgrading enterprises through a training program tailored to the nature of the needs identified. It is to meet this need that EDPME organizes a training program for the benefit of heads of SMEs, whose implementation will require the contribution of support organizations to SMEs, which are chambers of commerce, exchanges of subcontracting, and employers’ associations and professionals.

Objectives

The objectives of the mission include strengthening the managerial capacities of the heads of private Algerian SMEs, their increased mastery of the processing of financial files, and their awareness of the need to rely on forecasting, control, and certification systems for their management.

The final goal of the mission is an increased mastery of modern management tools and techniques for 120 SME managers.
