The main objective of this training course is to equip participants with skills and knowledge necessary for effective writing of work reports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a common practice that every job holder is required to report work performance and results for a particular period to their line authority,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>Kabwila adds, \u201cIt is only through good reports that supervisors are able to make appropriate decisions and actions in an organisation. In this modern era, good decisions are made based on empirical evidence and therefore reports provide necessary information to facilitate the decision making.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRecently, we have heard of an outcry in public service for substandard reports, letters and memos that are provided to the Cabinet members from their subordinates. Therefore, this course has come at the right time as it will address some of these challenges\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Ministry of Finance\u2019s Director of Public Finance Management Reforms (PFMR) Mrs. M. Mhango therefore lauded MIM for equipping officers with skills. Mhango expects outstanding work output than before.<\/p>\n<p>The training therefore covered following areas fundamentals of effective report writing, setting clear objectives, general requirements of an effective report, report templates and formats, writing rules, use of graphics and charts, use of citations and references, report presentation skills and among others.<\/p>\n<p>Through Chuma Cha Dziko program, the training was funded by European Union (EU). This is the first cohort MIM has trained after the passing of Malawi School of Government Bill. The training ran from September 6 to 9, 2022 at MIM Lilongwe campus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
