TRAINING GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
30 minutes
Divide the participants into groups of three. Ask each trio to discuss
their expectations from the workshop.
Ask trio to list their expectations and read them out to the large group
Facilitator introduces the training goals and matches participants’
expectations with these goals
It is likely that some participants will expect to gain some practical technical
experience from the workshop. The training programme does not provide initially for
this, but participants themselves may have technical experience that is valuable to
each other. The facilitator could arrange some space in the training time table to
enable an exchange of participants’ experience. Participants who live nearby could
be encouraged to bring in materials for demonstration if they wish, or to take the
group on a visit to their communities.
Another set of expectations could be that participants see this training as the first
step towards designing a practical project with the groups they work with or, (in the
case of villagers) for themselves. The final modules(session 17 & 18 ) provide an
opportunity for participants to design their own project.
