Training for Trainers DMMMSU Open University Batch 9 Comments- critiques-recommendations.docx

Major Observations
1. Use of modules: Who is responsible for preparing the training module? Conduct
Module development training as an intervention measure
2. DAR ATP should categorize the pool of trainers based on their specialization.
This approach would make it easier to identify trainers to handle the requested
training based on their expertise.
3. DAR mostly subsidizes funding sources. It is important to prioritize micro and
small coops for subsidy. For medium and large coops, you have counterparts or
share funds to conduct training activities.
4. Encourage medium and large companies to use their CETF to sponsor micro
small coops under the Big Brother Small Brother Program.
5. Review CDA MC 2020 -23 on CETF and Utilization, Allocation and remittance
6. DAR ATP should have a file of PowerPoint presentations ready, especially for
the mandatory training, to be used by their pool of trainers. They are allowed to
enhance or modify presentations according to the needs of their cooperators.
7. Reading materials should also be made available for reproduction and printing,
or consider the possibility of selling the materials at cost.
8. Resources like demand letters, collection letters, follow-up collection letters, and
subscription forms should be available for easy access (electronically).
9. Describe specific activities for mentoring and coaching.
10.DAR ATP trainers should train their pool to prepare a suitable PowerPoint
Presentation (Skills enhancements).
11.Consider the action plan as the output with timelines and deliverables of the
training for effective M&E.
12.During your evaluation review, consider what went wrong. Review strategies and
policies that are still effective and relevant and identify what went right to be
retained as best practices.
13.Other presenters mentioned sustainability, but what are your indicators of
sustainability?
14.How do you know if the cooperative is successful? Use impact evaluations
through a review of literature and studies.
15.Incase of power failure or instant brownouts
Teaching without electricity or during brownouts requires the creative use of non-
digital and low-tech teaching instruments. Here are some effective tools and methods to
use in such situations:
1. Printed Materials
 Textbooks and Workbooks: Use printed textbooks, workbooks, and handouts
for reading, exercises, and activities.

 Charts and Posters: Display information on charts, posters, and diagrams to
illustrate concepts visually.
 Flashcards: Use flashcards for vocabulary, definitions, or quick reviews of key
concepts.
2. Whiteboards and Chalkboards
 Whiteboards: Utilize whiteboards with markers for writing and drawing. They can
be easily wiped clean and reused.
 Chalkboards: Use chalkboards for writing, drawing diagrams, and illustrating
problems.
3. Printed Guides and Manuals
 Lesson Plans: Prepare and use printed lesson plans to guide instruction.
 Instructional Manuals: Provide students with printed instructional manuals or
guides relevant to the subject matter.
4. Physical Manipulatives
 Models and Prototypes: Use physical models or prototypes to demonstrate
concepts, especially in science or engineering subjects.
 Objects and Props: Utilize real-world objects or props to illustrate practical
examples and applications of the material being taught.
5. Interactive Activities
 Group Work: Engage students in group activities, discussions, and collaborative
problem-solving.
 Role-Playing: Implement role-playing exercises to explore concepts and
scenarios.
 Games and Quizzes: Use board games, card games, or oral quizzes to make
learning interactive and fun.
6. Analog Tools
 Calculators: Use basic calculators for math exercises and problem-solving.
 Timers: Use kitchen timers or stopwatches for timing activities or games.
7. Handouts and Worksheets
 Worksheets: Distribute worksheets for practice exercises, assessments, or
classwork.
 Handouts: Provide handouts with summaries, key points, or additional readings.
8. Books and Reading Materials

 Reading Assignments: Assign reading from books or articles that students can
work on during class or as homework.
 Literature: Use novels, stories, or poems to facilitate reading and discussion.
9. Discussion and Lecture
 Verbal Instruction: Rely on oral explanations, lectures, and discussions to
convey information.
 Debates: Organize debates or discussions to explore different perspectives on a
topic.
10. Visual Aids
 Diagrams and Flowcharts: Draw diagrams or flowcharts on whiteboards or
chalkboards to explain processes and relationships.
 Maps and Charts: Use printed maps and charts to support geography or data
analysis lessons.
Preparation Tips
 Plan Ahead: Prepare materials in advance and have a backup plan for power
outages.
 Engage Students: Make use of interactive and hands-on activities to keep
students engaged and motivated.
 Flexibility: Be adaptable and ready to switch between different teaching
methods depending on the available resources.
By using these teaching instruments and methods, you can effectively continue
instruction and keep students engaged, even in the absence of electricity.

language.
 Structure: Include key components such as purpose, scope, definitions,
responsibilities, procedures, and enforcement.
 Alignment: Ensure the policy aligns with existing policies and procedures to
avoid conflicts.
d. Review and Approval:
 Internal Review: Have the draft policy reviewed by key stakeholders and experts
for feedback and revisions.
 Approval Process: Submit the policy draft to the cooperative’s board or
governing body for approval.

 Communication: Communicate the new policy to all members and stakeholders,
explaining its purpose and implications.
2. Policy Implementation
a. Develop an Implementation Plan:
 Action Steps: Outline the steps required to implement the policy, including
timelines, resources, and responsibilities.
 Training: Provide training and resources to members and staff to ensure they
understand and can comply with the new policy.
b. Assign Responsibilities:

concerns, or issues related to the policy.
3. Policy Review
a. Regular Monitoring:
 Performance Metrics: Define and track performance metrics to assess the
effectiveness of the policy.
 Feedback Mechanisms: Collect feedback from members and stakeholders on
the policy’s impact and effectiveness.
b. Review and Evaluation:
 Periodic Review: Schedule regular reviews of the policy (e.g., annually or
biannually) to ensure it remains relevant and effective.

 Evaluation Criteria: Evaluate the policy based on its ability to meet objectives,
compliance with regulations, and overall impact.
c. Revise and Update:
 Identify Changes: Based on the review, identify areas for improvement or
necessary changes to the policy.
 Update Policy: Revise the policy as needed and follow the same process for
review and approval as in the formulation phase.
d. Document and Communicate Changes:
 Documentation: Document any changes or updates to the policy.
 Communication: Inform all members and stakeholders of the changes and
provide updated versions of the policy.
Key Considerations:
 Inclusivity: Ensure that the policy development process is inclusive and
considers the diverse needs and perspectives of all stakeholders.
 Compliance: Stay up-to-date with changes in laws and regulations that may
affect the policy.
 Transparency: Maintain transparency throughout the policy formulation,
implementation, and review processes to build trust and ensure buy-in from
members.
 Flexibility: Be prepared to adapt policies as the cooperative evolves and
external conditions change.
By following these guidelines, cooperatives can develop, implement, and review
policies effectively, ensuring they support the cooperative’s objectives and contribute to
its overall success.
