Introduction

Participants will learn how to initiate a research project for targeted business needs, conduct research through multiple modes and datasets, analyze research data, manage suppliers performing specialized research, and deliver recommendations from the research. By the end of the specialization, learners will create and scope a research proposal, conduct desk research, design and test a focus group guide, interpret focus group results, design and implement a survey, analyze quantitative data, develop insights by synthesizing findings across research methods, create data visualizations in Excel, and develop a presentation of findings with recommendations to stakeholders.

Markets Linkages connect the organisations involved in producing the products and delivering the services for any and every market. The benefits of investing in linkage development are significant. Through supporting the development of market linkages, businesses and programmes alike can ensure that their short-term investment has a long-term impact that will ultimately lead to improved local capacity, create jobs and accelerate growth.
