14. SPROUT…Development and Immediate Objectives
Development Objectives
Overall aims of the project
Broader behavioral/institutional changes to which the project will contribute
Immediate Objectives
Specific achievements (situations and/or conditions) or direct results that the project will attain by the end of the project
Be as specific as possible and avoid using verbs expressing activities (e.g. “to study”, “to raise awareness”, or “to assist”).

15. SPROUT…Indicators of Achievement and Outputs
A brief description of the desired or expected situation at the end of the project, with clear emphasis on the changes that the project will help to bring about.
Outputs
Products that the project will produce
Be precise in defining the outputs

16. SPROUT…Main activities
List of main activities
How the inputs of the project will be transformed into outputs
List all the activities, in a logical (or chronological) order, that are important to the production of the outputs
Be strategic!

17. SPROUT…Inputs and monitoring/evaluation/report
List of Inputs
List all the inputs needed for carrying out the planned activities
Consider financial implications for each input (Is it available for free, or do you have to create it?)
Monitoring/evaluation/reporting
Consider appropriate monitoring, evaluation and reporting mechanisms/procedures, so that you can ensure the project will be proceeded as planned while producing expected results.

18. Example of a Project
Building up a project on Training Methodology

19. Individual Activity
Prepare a work plan using a “Model Workplan” form

20. Presentation of Work Plan
In the group work,each participant has to present his/her ideas taking into account his or her specificity;
Carefully take notes of your colleague’s presentation, focusing on some good points, weak points, and/or questions;
The plenary presentation ‘ll be followed by Q&A session where colleagues help the presenter improve the collective work plan
