• Running Costs – We rely partly on our financial supporters for the running costs of our office. Our staff are volunteers which is a blessing, as this allows more money to be spent on specific aims within our work.
• Education, Module and Course Development – We constantly up-date and modernise our courses as well as develop new ones. As a result we are constantly paying consultants in their respective fields for their expertise and time in this regard. We feel as a company that it is important that we develop a multifaceted approach regarding the courses in order to cater for everyones needs.
• Library – At present Monos has a library of around 1000 books and articles that are available to both students and friends of Monos. We are constantly updating the library with new and old publications which requires money.
