EDUCATION: Free online course on Microfinance


My corporate volunteering project is coming to an end in Hyderabad, India. You always feel like you have all the time in the world to explore when you've arrived to some place new. And just when you start to scratch the surface, it is already time to say goodbye. During my very brief stay, I have been fortunate enough to meet a wide range of people that inspires. I am working to share their stories soon.

During my first week here, I was doing general research on microfinance and stumbled upon this great online course for microfinance. It is hosted by the Microfinance Centre for Central and Eastern Europe and the New Independent States. The entire course is called "Foundations of Sustainable Microfinance", and it breaks down into 6 modules. I've completed the first three modules and found that they are very substantial compared to other microfinance online learning websites. If you are interested in microfinance, I highly recommend checking out the modules.
