Capacity Building

          Capacity building of local officials and specialized agencies is key to RUDEP making a long-term and sustainable contribution to Quang Ngai’s development. When first entering a new commune and district, the Capacity Building Officer analyses the training needs of commune and district officials working most closely with the Program. The analysis identifies the officials’ strengths and weaknesses in carrying out their work tasks and the types of capacity building of most benefit to them.

   

          Based on the needs identified during this process, the Program employs a variety of measures to build government capacity at provincial right down to village level.

Competency-Based Training

          Measuring of an individual’s competency is an important mechanism for feedback and improvement. RUDEP facilitates such an approach through:

  • Pre-Course Competency Assessments (assess levels of competency on key skill and knowledge needs before training);

  • Post-Course Competency Assessments (measure levels of competency on key skills and knowledge after training); and

  • Ex-Post Assessments (conducted 3-6 months after training to measure knowledge retention and application levels in everyday work).

          These Assessments are conducted for all training events and allow RUDEP, Government stakeholders and Capacity Building Service Providers to measure change in capacity over time

Training Courses

          Training courses conducted by professional trainers from outside Quang Ngai assist local officials to improve on their knowledge and skills as well as learning about new approaches applicable to their work.

Study Tours

          The experiences, knowledge and information gained through study tours to other provinces and projects can assist local officials to carry out their current work and generate innovative ideas for their position or local areas.

Learning - by - doing

          Working together with or being contracted by RUDEP enables local agencies to learn from implementation. This increases their technical expertise while at the same time provides an opportunity to learn new approaches and perspectives. Interaction with local agencies helps the program to continually modify its activities and approaches to suit local conditions.
