Delivering the Course

Delivering the course effectively requires a systematic approach not only to designing the course content and pedagogical strategies but also ensuring both human and financial resources as well as providing infrastructural support. The process of planning for funding, engaging expert instructors and administrative staff needs to be undertaken well in advance of the actual course. During the course, both participants and instructors may need to be debriefed regularly, and each session requires supporting material in the form of literature, worksheets and other related materials. Equally important is following up on participants and instructors when the course has concluded in order to get their feedback on the course and also to collect the information generated through the course for future initiatives.

During the Course

Planning and structuring the modules

  • Introduce the module and the key resource people to participants.
  • For each case study, ensure enough background information is provided to participants.
  • Each module should be linked to the disaster risk management framework and be summarised before proceeding to the next module.

Infrastructure and facilities

  • Ensure that worksheets and sample formats are provided for participants on site and that literature and other supporting documents for each lecture are circulated.
  • Stationery and equipment needed for conducting workshops and lectures should be arranged.
