Dear colleagues, Pathfinder International is pleased to share two new Straight to the Point capacity building tools: Workplanning<http://www.pathfinder.org/publications-tools/straight-to-the-point-workplanning.html?utm_source=utm_source=TSUListServ&utm_medium=utm_medium=email&utm_term=utm_content=Click4HP&utm_campaign=utm_campaign=STTPworkplanning> and Assessing Basic Accounting Practices.<http://www.pathfinder.org/publications-tools/straight-to-the-point-assessing-basic-accounting-practices.html?utm_source=utm_source=TSUListServ&utm_medium=utm_medium=email&utm_term=utm_content=Click4HP&utm_campaign=utm_campaign=STTPaccounting> The Workplanning<http://www.pathfinder.org/publications-tools/straight-to-the-point-workplanning.html?utm_source=utm_source=TSUListServ&utm_medium=utm_medium=email&utm_term=utm_content=Click4HP&utm_campaign=utm_campaign=STTPworkplanning> tool leads an organization or group step-by-step through the process of creating a workplan-from setting goals and objectives, to choosing activities, to planning timing and assigning responsibility-and includes a workplan template. The Assessing Basic Accounting Practices<http://www.pathfinder.org/publications-tools/straight-to-the-point-assessing-basic-accounting-practices.html?utm_source=utm_source=TSUListServ&utm_medium=utm_medium=email&utm_term=utm_content=Click4HP&utm_campaign=utm_campaign=STTPaccounting> tool offers a brief introduction to a few essential accounting practices and provides a checklist to help organizations assess whether they are meeting these fundamental requirements. Taking into consideration implementers' limited time and human and financial resources, the tools in Pathfinder's Straight to the Point Series provide clear, concise guidance on a variety of issues related to organizational management and program design, implementation, and assessment. The Straight to the Point tools do not replace extensive, in-depth evaluations and guidance, but rather offer an easier, more direct way of improving programs and launching new activities.
