Each unit of the three-module course includes instructional objectives, relevant training materials for each objective and corresponding application exercises. Personal assessment of training needs at the beginning of the course helps learners to plan an individual programme of study. Training programme effectiveness is measured by means of evaluation questionnaires at the end of the course. Designed especially for policy-makers, managers and administrators of TVET institutions, programme planners, training and programme development specialists.
