FAQ:

What specific qualifications or prerequisites are needed for participants before enrolling in the course?

Participants are expected to have a basic understanding of PPP concepts, ideally having completed the CP3P Foundation level or equivalent practical experience in infrastructure projects.

How long is each day's session, and is there a total number of hours required for the entire course?

Each day's session is generally structured to last around 4-5 hours, with breaks and interactive activities included. The total course duration spans five days, approximately 20-25 hours of instruction.

What distinguishes economic feasibility analysis from value-for-money analysis in PPP projects?

Economic feasibility assesses the overall benefit to society using tools like cost-benefit analysis, while value-for-money compares PPP against traditional procurement to determine which offers better efficiency and cost-effectiveness over the project lifecycle.
