We maintain the highest standards by emphasizing planning and design of each and every workshop, and working with trainers who understand the importance of interactive, participatory training techniques. We constantly evaluate ourselves to try and improve and apply best practices whenever possible.

Strategy: The design of the training program can be undertaken only when a clear training objective has been produced.

​

How does it work?

​

The training has two folds: content and process.

​

Content: The training covers the knowledge part through the content. It is flexible and responds to the needs of the time.

​

Process: We try to build capacity of our participants through the process of teaching and learning. We have activities like attend various seminars, workshop on relevant issues, group work and presentation and internship with various NGOs. Our concentration is on developing practical understanding by developing their interpersonal skills, making them proactive and honest, increase their self-direction, reflection abilities. Through the process they learn to make presentation, report, research topic, questionnaire, data processing tools, research report etc. The mechanism is fairly simple; a classroom is connected to a teacher via video conferencing technology and internet. The classes are operated with a teacher making the learning process communicative and interactive even with the virtual presence of its remote learners.

​

In order to provide quality training we are determined to keep the class size small. We would like invite those people to join who have finished their formal education (graduation/Masters). Besides, we would be interested in someone who has time, commitment, sincerity and flexibility. We advertise for the course in the newspaper and try to select participants on the basis of their interest and commitment to the training. We try to attend participants within our office time prior to enrollment where interested people can come and find out more about the course before they decide to join in. Finally, we assess the level of interest in students through interviews.

​
