Training Need Assessment of Forest User Groups.

Eijnatten, J.van (1998)

Summary:

This training needs assessment (TNA) was conducted to determine disaggregated training requirements and forms of delivery of training to FUG members. To maximise identification of training needs, information was gathered using different methods and sources: a prioritised problem analysis, a survey focus ing on the level of organisational development of FUGs , information from a TNA of local institutions and information extracted from field visit and workshop reports.

Where possible, the study focused on gathering target group specific information: needs of women, men, low castes, FUG committee members, youth and children. Also, where possible content for training was extracted and priorities of training needs were determined. To determine suitable delivery systems, each training need identified was subjected to a screening process.

Seventeen types of training needs were identified ranging from gender analysis to timber utilisation and leadership to micro-finance. In this report, each training need has been treated separately giving information on target group, priority, delivery system and contents.

It must be kept in mind that the training needs identified here are generic and that they reflect the needs of FUGs at this point in time. Mechanisms have been instituted in the project to continually update information on training requirements. As needs and contexts change, delivery systems and contents need to be adapted.
