description: The United Nations Capital Development Fund’s Special Unit for Microfinance has launched a new distance learning course intended to help microfinance practitioners around the world set up and operate small-scale banking networks. The emphasis of the course is sustainability – how to lend small sums of money to micro-entrepreneurs in a manner that ensures the long-term viability of the institution. The course brings together advice and best practices from successful practitioners and institutions around the world, from Latin America to Africa to Asia. The Microfinance Distance Learning Course comes in a package with two CD-ROMs –one contains the Computer-Based Instruction, and the other a selection of reading to accompany the eleven lessons. A workbook is included that explores the topics in more depth, offering practice questions and solutions.
