Submission Procedures

Having chosen the potential partner agency for the project or programme in question in correspondence with the agency's country priorities or programme focuses, the next step should be a familiarisation with the agency's submission procedures.

The submission should
  • provide all requested information,
  • embed the description of the initiative in the current development trends and strategies, development trends and strategies (see the Restructuring TVET: Current Approaches section),
  • reflect the development agency's mission statement and programme emphases.
Various agencies have adopted special submission guidelines including matrices that would help partners to develop their request. Two well-known and clear examples are the "Logical Framework Approach (LFA)" (comprising the "Logframe Matrix") and the approach "Objectives-oriented Project Planning ("Zielorientierte Projektplanung/ ZOPP" including its "Project Planning Matrix/ PPM"). ZOPP is a further development by GTZ of the LFA. The LFA was first used by USAID. Both approaches have their advocates among the agencies.

Please find these submission guidelines and their respective matrices on the following websites:
  1. "Logical Framework Approach (LFA)" and its "Logframe Matrix":

In the individual analyses of the national agencies it is indicated whether the agency concerned explicitly favours a special submission approach.
