Leveraging Accenture’s skills in the UK
AMREF and Accenture’s relationship has deepened beyond support for the eLearning programme in Kenya. AMREF in the UK has leveraged Accenture’s skills to add value to our work in IT, knowledge management, corporate account management and risk management. In Africa, Accenture Development Partnerships has seconded staff to AMREF to support the development of the new corporate strategy and to strengthen AMREF’s project management systems.
“Accenture’s partnership with AMREF – which started in 2004 - has already delivered tremendous results. The pioneering five-year eLearning programme, which has been jointly developed by Accenture and AMREF, offers new, exciting avenues for developing health resources in Africa. We are very proud of our association with AMREF and are looking forward to a growing and mutually beneficial relationship.”
