About our Training Services

LINC conducts training and provides coaching to support the work and missions of local actors and local stakeholder groups in diverse locations throughout the world. We utilize participatory experiential learning techniques, integrating theoretical concepts and analysis with practical experience and know-how – our goal with every course is to have participants walk out immediately able to apply what they learned to their work.

Our training modules support local organizations to formalize their organizational policies and procedures, establish performance management and evaluation systems, build their technical and fundraising capacities, and incorporate systems approaches into their work.

LINC’s work with networks and stakeholder issue groups includes training workshops to increase collaboration, align stakeholders around a vision for systemic change, establish and reinforce mechanisms to listen and respond to local priorities, and catalyze resources around issues.

Systems Thinking training

Training in Action

In Mexico, LINC worked with Mexican partner NGO, Fondo Unido Mexico and local institutes of higher education to develop and self-sustain the Civil Society Organizational Training Certificate Program. The training courses were launched in 2014 with pilot activities and scaled up through the USAID-Funded Local Capacity Development Activity (LCDA). The course transitioned to local ownership and local resource mobilization in 2019. Over the course of five-years, approximately 250 local Mexican organizations have been trained in ten functional areas, including strategic planning, fundraising, human resources, and M&E.

Under the USAID-funded Local Systems Practice activity, LINC and our consortium partners delivered a series of training modules on Systems Thinking for International Development for 25 local civil society organizations in Latin America and Asia. The course was designed to give local development practitioners the ability to apply systems thinking methods and tools directly to their work. Read more.

In September 2019, LINC began offering a series of in-person courses on Systems Thinking for International Development to international NGOs and donor agencies in Washington, DC. which, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, were cancelled.

However, in the summer of 2020, LINC successfully conducted its first online training course on “Causal Loop Diagrams: Understanding Factors and Causality” and our staff now feels prepared and ready to offer it to our clients. For more information on this course, please click the bottom below.
