Training in Central Asia
This page is also available in Russian
Training has been one of INTRAC’s main strategies towards supporting civil society performance since 1994 when we started work alongside civil society actors in Central Asia. Our approach to training and learning reflects a belief in the values of participation, empowerment and social justice, and is fully adapted to local conditions.
In 2010 we are running courses on; effective management of people and programs; strategic relations and partnership development; organisation development and change management; modern training and facilitation skills; and advanced monitoring and evaluation.

Methods of learning
Our training is participatory. We use a variety of methods based on action learning principles such as case studies, group work, role play and peer support. Wherever possible, we bring in the expertise of participants themselves. Practical sessions are complemented by presentations on new methodology, theories and development trends, so that participants can locate their experiences within the wider body of thought.
Training is delivered simultaneously in English and Russian.
Training fees
These courses are either three- or five-day workshops. Fees for participants are $665 USD (three-day courses, non-residential), and $975 USD (five-day courses, which are residential). Both fees exclude the cost of travel.
