tools was identified during the cascade training programs implemented in districts
by the trained trainers of CRF.
In addition to the refining and finalisation of the CRF training manual along with
the new training aids, an appropriate training strategy needs to be conceived so that
all key stakeholders implementing training programs on CRF could adapt a uniform
approach. A uniform training strategy is to make the learning service accessible to all
key staff members involved in development planning and implementation of development projects. This will be achieved through the establishment of learning service
lead by DMC which is able to provide appropriate, contextualised and affordable
learning support in CRF. Hence training, supporting, assessing and creating a pool
of assessed/accredited local trainers in CRF at district level helped in achieving the
roll-out of CRF to divisional and GN level. This requires an approach to implement
CRF that facilitates a wide range of learning options. The programme can be developed and delivered through an appropriate mix of the following learning methods,
including but not limited to.
• Direct group learning such as workshops, briefings and seminars.
• Self-directed group learning such as discussion forums, action learning sets and
communities of practice.
• One-to-one learning such as coaching and mentoring.
• Self-managed learning such as interactive learning CD, videos, publications/resources.
