This e-course on “Planning for Immunization” provides a better understanding of how to develop an effective Comprehensive Multi-year Plan (cMYP).

WHO and UNICEF have published guidelines for the development of a Comprehensive Multi-year Plan (cMYP). But what does the planning process look like in action? What obstacles do programme managers encounter, and how do they overcome them? How can a plan make a programme more efficient, instead of just being used to generate funding?

This course consists of five 10- to 15-min modules. Within it, you play the role of a country office staff member and assist the National EPI Manager of a country named Zanrib to support the cMYP process.

The course provides an overview of how you can develop an effective and relevant cMYP by following simple planning steps. It focuses on the cMYP development process and the importance of involving appropriate stakeholders at various points in the development cycle. By the end of the module, you will be able to effectively support the cMYP development process.
