A ~@5 million contribution from the European Union is helping the
EBRD's Business Advisory Services (BAS) to deliver business advice and
consultancy services to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises and
contribute to the development of sustainable local consultancy markets
in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine. The
EBRD's BAS, launched in 1995, conducts activities to disseminate
international best practices in all its countries of operations.
In a continuing effort to contribute to the development of a
sustainable infrastructure of local business advisory services, to
transfer international best practices to local consultants, and as
part of the train-the-trainers principle, BAS in Armenia is improving
consulting performance through tailor-made courses on Core Consultancy
Skills and Professional Ethics delivered to consultants. Starting
from 28 March, one such course will train 23 Armenian consultants
in Yerevan.
The Core Consultancy Skills and Professional Ethics course is
an opportunity for the Armenian consulting industry to develop
a sustainable market for management consulting and to take it
to a higher level by introducing international certification of
business/management consultants.
This initiative is a follow-up of previous training course implemented
in early 2011 for business consultants from the three countries of
the South Caucasus in Tbilisi, Georgia. Following last year's course,
six Armenian business consultants have successfully obtained the
Certificate of Management Consultants Essentials qualification of the
Institute of Consultants of UK, and three of them have later become
Certified Management Consultants.
At the end of 2011, under leadership of the participants of the course,
and encouraged by BAS Armenia, the Institute of Management Consulting
Armenia was established. The Institute aims to set the standards for
Business/Management Consulting practice in Armenia and to promote
international best practices and knowledge sharing.
Now IMC Armenia in cooperation with the UK consultants, as well
as with active support from BAS Armenia, will further develop the
training infrastructure by rolling-out the training course to other
Armenian business consultants. The first round of training will be
held on 28-31 March.
