Training techniques used in
the manual
0 Participatory presentation and
discussion
0 Group Work
0 Observations and de-briefing
0 Role Plays
Group work
0 Ideal size: 4 – 10 people
0 Shared characteristic: Same place of work /
same profession
0 Fosters team building and bonding
0 Provides opportunity for those to be heard
who may be silent in front of larger audience
0 Encourages learning from the peers \
0 Helps assessment of pre-existing knowledge
and understanding by the facilitator
Role play
0 Best suited for skill-based sessions
0 Ideally at least the first such role play should
be almost scripted
0 Based on a pre-decided case vignette
0 Played by two facilitators (one playing client and
another playing the staff)
0 Should be followed by feedback and
discussion
Observation and De-briefing
0 Gives a more ‘real’ and ‘hands-on’ experience
0 Requires logistic arrangements and
preparations
0 Should be coupled with de-briefing
0 The facilitator should be well conversant with
the
0 Setting observed
0 Setting in which participants are likely to work
Refresher Training
0 Ideal time: About 6 months after the initiation
into programme and then annually
0 May be smaller in duration than the Induction
training
0 Requires more skilled and experienced
facilitators
0 The agenda needs to be tailored and customized
as per the perceived needs of the participants
0 May have to be coupled with a stock taking
exercise or a programme review
