In addition to PARM, participants can earn certifications in Behavioral Economics, Monitoring and Evaluation of Development Programs (M&EDP), Tax Policy and Revenue Estimation (TPRE), and Tax Analysis and Revenue Forecasting (TARF). Each course is taught by expert faculty and includes lectures, field visits, and practice time.
