Welcome to Mastering Asset Management!

Asset management refers to the process of managing the life cycle of an asset in a cost-effective manner. Asset Management includes everything from planning what assets will be required, replacement of old  assets, how we tag and track assets, who they are issued to and having a defined process for the disposal at the end of their useful life.

This 1-hour course will provide you with an overview of all stages of the asset management process.

This course is brought to you by Save the Children International and Humanitarian Leadership Academy, with support from Amazon.
