Resource Requirements Tool - RRT

The RRT helps countries estimate and project the cost of planned HRH employment and pre-service training as well as the affordability of these plans.

The Resource Requirements Tool (RRT) is a hands-on, Excel-based tool that is ready for countries to apply to (i) estimate and project the resources required for meeting their HRH plans; (ii) analyze the plans’ affordability; (iii) simulate “what if” scenarios; (iv) facilitate the monitoring of scale up plans; (v) contribute to the development of the cost and financing component of Human Resource Management Information Systems.
