Parishkaar Advisory Services, an international consulting firm servicing SMEs including microfinance institutions, non-government organizations, cooperatives, trusts, and foundations, will host a three day training on process mapping.

The course, which is taught through a combination of case studies, presentations, exercises, and group discussions, is geared towards senior and mid-level management of microfinance institutions. Hitendrea Shanker, head of Parishkaar’s Business Development and Knowledge Development Groups, will facilitate the training.
