Besides this, the management can better understand the sensitive factors on which the results depend and take extra care to manage them.

Objectives:  This two day workshop will enhance the skill sets of participants through hands-on learning of Monte Carlo methods in project viability analysis with specific focus on financial modeling and real life case studies.
