2022 Ghana DHS Training of Trainers

Josh Durant

The DHS Master Training of Trainers (TOT) Workshop is designed for any professional (experienced or new trainer) who is responsible for organizing, implementing and evaluating training programs. It is based on the participatory approach and focuses on equipping counterparts with effective facilitation skills.  The workshop focusses on adult learning principles and provides participants with an understanding of the foundations of effective training design.  Participants are introduced to the principles that guide adult learning and how to apply effective training methods and techniques to transfer knowledge, skills and abilities in any technical area. During the workshop participants will receive support and guidance in preparing and leading teach back sessions on a topic of their choosing. At the completion of the theory and practical classroom training, each participant conducts a one and a half hour teaching session in the DHS context while integrating the adult learning theory principles from the workshop. At the end of the workshop participants will be able to apply their new knowledge and skills in future trainings.
