services are reaching perhaps as many as twenty million people
worldwide. These services are being provided by existing banks
which have added microfinance to their product portfolio, by
specialized microfinance institutions (MFIs) and by
non-governmental organization (NGOs) which offer microfinance along
with other services. This training manual is designed to meet the
needs of those who train staff for banks, MFIs and NGOs. It will
enable them to provide effective training for those who work, or
may in the future work, in the field of microfinance. "Practical
Microfinance" provides detailed step-by-step descriptions for
twenty-two sessions which together offer a complete 5--10 day
course on microfinance. The sessions may also be used individually,
selected from to make up tailor-made courses, or integrated with
other materials. The sessions cover a wide range of topics
including: introduction to financial accounts; undertaking field
visits; analysis of MFIs; group and individual lending;
micro-insurance and micro-savings; and measuring the impact of
microfinance.The sessions have been extensively tested in courses
at the Cranfield School of Management in the UK, and in a number of
different institutions in India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Kenya,
Uganda and elsewhere.The session exercise and case study handouts
may be photocopied for participants or customized to meet trainees'
needs via freely available web files. An introductory chapter
includesadvice on how to use the material in the book and a list of

content and delivery of microfinance training and thus contribute
to the greater availability of affordable, accessible and
profitable financial services to the poor.
