Oxfam's step-by-step guide to basic accounting and financial management techniques was originally published in 1992. In this newly updated edition, each chapter contains training materials which may be used either with groups or for individual self-instruction. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, aiming to build up expertise systematically through examples and case-studies. The text is suitable for learners whose command of English is limited: the activities and exercises use multiple-choice and group-discussion formats, avoiding the need for long written answers. Solutions are provided for all the activities.

Much has been written about capacity building but little on how to use financial management to build capacity. Donors are increasingly requiring their non-profit beneficiaries to have sound financial systems before they will provide funds. This guide provides an overview of financial management and the practical tools that can help build the financial capacity of non-profit organizations. Using case studies to demonstrate good practice, this guide will offer practical advice in how to work with a partner organization to build its financial capacity. It will also detail tools and techniques for using financial skills to improve organizational and program management.The guide is intended for managers and trustees of non-profit organizations, providing tools and techniques for them to build their own financial system, and for those assessing another organization’s financial capacity.
