Key to running an effective market systems project is creating a robust learning culture within the implementation team. While I push operational and managerial practices that support the emergence of a learning culture, I have found it is critical to also invest in more learning tools and platforms for staff that are grounded in credible learning methodologies. The methodologies used by the Market Systems Accelerator have shown excellent results in terms of staff discussion, grasping ideas, and applying improved/more sophisticated practices.

This course gave me the opportunity to be exposed to Market Systems approaches, which built my capacity to better receive a wider perspective on the market. The course also helped me to understand the mandate of key public-private sector players with whom we have regular interactions. The use of real life case studies in the online program was useful and linked to the core areas of my work. The learning was open ended and there were opportunities for flexibility and resilience to adapt to the changing contexts. Although the course appears to be intensive, there were attributes which created an overall fun experience.
