Financial Management and Disbursement in World Bank Financed Projects: Self-Learning Program

This multimedia, self-paced learning program has been designed to help users negotiate their way through the policies, procedures, and guidelines for financial management and disbursements in World Bank financed projects. Through this self-paced learning program, the World Bank expects to promote improved compliance with operational policies and Bank procedures. In addition, the program will facilitate the use of Project Management Report (PMR)-Based Disbursement, which was introduced by the Bank in July 1998. The program covers the following aspects of project financial management in detail: • Project Financial Management; • Project Financial Management Process; and • Disbursements. The program is divided into two major sections, the Learning Board and the Case Studies. The Learning Board allows you to learn about the three modules listed above. The Case Studies allow you to apply your knowledge of project financial management and disbursements to relevant issues. The CD-ROM will be of use to Bank and borrower staff and vendors.
