Abstract: This Literature Review intended to highlight Project Management Training as a determinant of project implementation by Grass-root Support Non-Governmental Organisations in Embu County, Kenya. The reviewer had studied grass-root support NGOs with projects in the fields of Agriculture, Micro-Finance, Education, Health and Nutrition and found that majority of staff in these organisations did not have any basic training in Project Management. Findings from various studies have indicated that organizations in diverse industries have embraced Project Management but the implementation process remains a challenge, resulting in well-formulated strategies failing at the implementation stage because of a myriad of factors ranging from unrealistic expectations, poor methodology, poor requirements, inadequate resources, poor project management, untrained teams, unrealistic budgets, to poor communication and more.
