Monitoring and Evaluation of Training

As training is being conducted through out the year the STDCs have to be able to generate and report the latest status of the training on demand. They should take action to ensure adequate performance against the plan. For this task the STDC needs to:

1. Monitor the end-to-end execution process of each batch of planned training at STDC and other levels. This includes:
   1. monitoring of the batches initiated/completed as per the plan for various cadres/ geographies.
   2. monitoring the output of the training in terms of the proportion of trainees successfully completing the training.
2. Take action for trainees who were unable to successfully complete training, by including them in the next available batch.
3. Training feedback and quality assurance. This includes collating and analyzing the various quantitative/ qualitative feedback provided by the participants at the end of the course and translate the feedback into actions related to the trainer, training infrastructure and facilities, training content. 
4. At the end of each year before the next year's planning, evaluate the training conducted against the annual plan. Any shortfall may be accounted for during the subsequent year's training plan.
5. Based on the evaluation STDCs should prepare the annual report of training conducted in the State and include it in the NTEP report of the state for future reference and review

Training Evaluation

It is imperative to evaluate the short-term effects and long-term gains of any training programme to update the knowledge and expected performance up gradation with respect to the changing programme strategies. This is especially important for the NTEP addressing TB having wide spread stigma prevalent in the community. This can be undertaken in association with linked National Institute periodically at least once in 2-3 years. (click here)
