INSTITUTIONALIZATION/Page Five<br />

For example, recently one team of seven CSRTs finalized the national standardized inservice<br />

curricula for service delivery personnel (Nurse-Midwives, CHEWs and VHWs) and the TOT<br />

curriculum. This past month another CSRT team <strong>part</strong>icipated in the drafting of the FP<br />

modules for the nationwide Schools of Health Technology preservice CHEW curriculum.<br />

FHS' IEC contractor, Johns Hopkins, had also experienced a similar need for TOT in<br />

counseling and so collaborated and cosponsored the first phase of the CSRT developmental<br />

activities. In the future, it is anticipated that Johns Hopkins counseling training activities<br />

throughout the Nigerian Federation will utilize members of the CSRT.<br />

Phase Two of the CSRT development process is scheduled for early 1992. It is anticipated<br />

that the majority of the CSRT will have had at least one TOT experience between May 1991<br />

and the first quarter of 1992. Phase Two will concentrate on the theory and skills of training<br />

consultation including training curriculum development, monitoring and evaluation of training<br />

activities and the management of training. Advancement of training skills will be encouraged<br />

through video-taped training sessions, focusing on role-play, exercises/games and case-study<br />

analysis as the chosen training methods. Sharing and analysis of the CSRTs' training<br />

experiences between May and early 1992 will be used as a case-study approach to the<br />

CSRTs' development process. In-country FHS Pathfinder training staff will assist the CSRT<br />

throughout this activity as they did during Phase One and will oversee the assignment of<br />

CSRT members to FHS sponsored TOT/TA activities while continuing to maintain the data<br />

bank mentioned above.<br />

To date, feedback from CSRT to both FHS/Pathfinder in Lagos and to IHP has included a<br />

broadening of training skills' application at levels I and II (dotted-line pathway) with an<br />

increase in utilization of CSRT members in the replication of personnel within Cadre I and the<br />

involvement of CSRT in the development of training programs to increase numbers in Cadre<br />

II. It is anticipated that after the completion of the CSRT's Phase Two activity in 1992,<br />

utilization of the membership in training others as trainers and in consulting with ministries<br />

or other agencies regarding training programs will also increase, thus contributing to Cadre<br />

III expansion, both in numbers and in skills' acquisition.
