Methodology

To achieve optimum impact, the Education Program customizes and continuously adapts, updates and refines its learning materials, and disseminates them through a variety of modalities. The program also ensures effectiveness by focusing on results, including learning assessments, monitoring systems, and the effective use of results information.

 

Learning events are highly accessible in that they can take place in traditional classrooms, distance learning centers, project sites, and participants’ workplace and home. A partnership with the  Global Development Learning Network (GDLN) enables the Program to connect development practitioners and client countries through advanced information and communication technologies such as videoconferencing and high-speed internet resources at over 70 GDLN affiliates around the world. To ensure flexible, cost-efficient and client-oriented delivery, the Education Program uses blended learning modalities, including combinations of face-to-face and distance learning methods such as:

  • Face-to-face workshops, conferences, courses, dialogues, seminars, and study tours;
  • Print publications, textbooks, and course materials;
  • One- or two-way video conferencing, instructional videos, interactive and broadcast television, radio;
  • CD-ROMS, e-newsletters, online discussion forums, facilitated online courses, and real-time online interactions.
