Disclaimer

The content of the NGO Training website, blog and courses is provided for educational purposes only. Read about the limits of our information, third-party links, trademarks and logos.

Last updated: 15 October 2026

This disclaimer applies to the ngotraining.org website, including its course pages, blog articles, downloadable resources and any other content we publish, as well as to the general information shared during our training courses and coaching sessions. By using our website, you accept this disclaimer in full. If you do not agree with it, please do not rely on the content of the website.

The website is operated by One for All Services SPRL, trading as NGO Training, Brussels, Belgium (registered office: [registered office address]; company number: [company number], both available on request at [email protected]). In this disclaimer, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to One for All Services SPRL.

1. Educational information only

NGO Training exists to help staff of NGOs, charities, foundations and international organisations build their capacity in project management, public relations and marketing. The articles, guides, templates, checklists, examples and course descriptions on our website are provided for general educational and informational purposes only.

Our content is designed to explain concepts, share practical approaches and offer “lessons from the corporate trenches” that many organisations find useful. It is, by necessity, general in nature. It cannot take into account the specific circumstances, legal environment, funding conditions, organisational culture or risk profile of your organisation or project.

You should therefore treat our content as a starting point for your own thinking, not as a ready-made solution. Before applying any approach described on our website or in our courses, consider whether it is appropriate for your context, and adapt it as necessary.

Nothing on our website, in our Training Materials or in our blog constitutes professional advice of any kind, including:

  • legal advice, for example on contracts, employment law, data protection, charity or association law, or the legal requirements attached to grants;
  • financial, accounting or tax advice, for example on budgeting rules, VAT, eligible costs, financial reporting or audit requirements;
  • fundraising or grant compliance advice specific to a particular donor, funding programme or call for proposals;
  • human resources, safeguarding, health and safety or security advice, which require specialist expertise and knowledge of local regulations;
  • regulatory or certification advice, for example concerning professional project management certifications.

Where your decision involves legal, financial, tax, regulatory or other specialist issues, please consult a qualified professional who can take your full circumstances into account. In particular, always refer to the official guidelines and contractual conditions of the donor or funder concerned, which take precedence over any general guidance we provide.

The same principle applies to our training and coaching. Our trainers share practical knowledge and experience, and they will happily discuss the challenges you face. However, discussions during a workshop, in-house training day or coaching session are part of a learning process and do not create a relationship of professional adviser and client.

3. No guarantee of results or funding outcomes

We design our courses to be practical and hands-on, using real-life examples from NGO projects, so that participants can apply what they learn. Many participants find that the tools and techniques help them plan, communicate and deliver more effectively. However, we cannot and do not guarantee any particular outcome, including:

  • the success of a project, campaign or communication plan;
  • the approval, renewal or size of any grant, donation or other funding;
  • media coverage, audience growth or engagement levels;
  • passing any exam or obtaining any professional certification;
  • career progression, promotion or employment.

Results depend on many factors outside our control, such as the context in which you work, the resources available to you, the decisions of donors, partners and stakeholders, and how the knowledge and skills gained are applied. Attendance at one of our courses, such as Project Management Fundamentals or Mastering Public Relations, is a valuable investment in professional development, but it is not a guarantee of success.

Any examples, case studies or scenarios we use are illustrative. Where they are based on real situations, details have been simplified, combined or anonymised for teaching purposes, and they should not be read as a description of any particular organisation.

4. Accuracy and currency of information

We take care to ensure that the information on our website is accurate and up to date at the time of publication. However, project management practice, communication channels, digital platforms, donor rules and legislation evolve constantly. Information that was correct when published may become outdated.

We therefore make no representations or warranties, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability or availability of the website or the information it contains. In particular:

  • blog articles reflect the state of knowledge and the views of their author at the date of publication and are not necessarily updated afterwards;
  • course descriptions, dates, venues and prices may change; the information in your booking confirmation and our Terms and Conditions prevails;
  • references to laws, regulations, standards or frameworks are summaries and may not reflect the latest version;
  • templates and tools are provided “as is” and should be reviewed and adapted before use.

Any reliance you place on the information on our website is strictly at your own risk.

Using our templates and resources: templates such as project plans, risk registers, stakeholder maps or communication plans are examples to help you structure your own work. Before using one in a real project, check it against your organisation’s policies, your donor’s requirements and any applicable law, and adjust the content, terminology and approval steps accordingly. You remain responsible for the documents you produce and the decisions you take on the basis of them.

5. Errors and omissions

Despite our best efforts, the website may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies, omissions or outdated information, including in course descriptions, prices and availability. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update information at any time without prior notice.

If an obvious pricing error affects a booking, we will contact you before confirming it, as explained in our Terms and Conditions. If you notice an error anywhere on our website, we would be grateful if you could let us know at [email protected] so that we can correct it.

Our website may contain links to external websites operated by third parties, such as professional bodies, public institutions, donors, publishers or software providers. These links are provided for your convenience and further information only.

We have no control over the content, availability, accuracy, privacy practices or security of external websites, and we accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them. The inclusion of a link does not imply that we endorse, recommend or are affiliated with the linked website, its owner or its content.

When you leave our website, the terms of use and privacy policy of the other website apply. We recommend that you read them. If you find a link on our website that no longer works or that leads to inappropriate content, please tell us and we will review it.

7. Frameworks, methodologies and trademarks

Our courses and articles refer to a range of widely used frameworks, methodologies, standards and tools from project management, development cooperation, public relations and marketing. These may include, for example, guides and standards published by professional project management associations, structured project management methods, frameworks developed specifically for development and humanitarian projects, evaluation criteria published by international organisations, and established PR measurement principles.

Names such as PMI, PMP and PMBOK are trademarks of the Project Management Institute, Inc. PRINCE2 is a registered trademark of its respective owner. Other names of methodologies, certifications, frameworks, products and organisations mentioned on our website may also be trademarks or registered trademarks of their respective owners.

  • unless we expressly state otherwise, NGO Training is not affiliated with, accredited by, sponsored by or endorsed by any of these owners;
  • our courses are not official preparation courses for any certification exam, unless explicitly stated on the course page;
  • our summaries of these frameworks are simplified for teaching purposes and do not replace the official publications.

8. Third-party logos and names

Our website may display the logos or names of third-party organisations, for example to illustrate tools and platforms discussed in a course, to refer to sectors in which our participants work, or to identify payment methods, software or partners.

All third-party logos, names and brands remain the property of their respective owners. Their display on our website is for identification or illustration purposes only. It does not imply any endorsement of NGO Training by those organisations, any endorsement of those organisations by us, or any partnership, sponsorship or commercial relationship, unless this is expressly stated.
