2.0 Enumerator Training

3.0 Baseline Training Facility

The following are the requirements for the Baseline training facility:

  • A room which can fit all the enumerators (It has been suggested to have 30 enumerators per country for the baseline)
  • The room should have conference facilities. It is much preferred to have the training room in the hotel where the team will be staying, if this is possible.

Projector Flip charts and marker pens Reliable power supply (especially in Nigeria) A good and reliable WiFi/internet connection

  • Writing materials (It can be really nice if we can get ACGG branded materials)
  • Tea and coffee during breaks
  • A couple of farmers (around 10) who are keeping Chicken and live around the training location. These will be used for testing the enumerators.
  • An open space near the training place to be used for testing the tablets and the forms (Not absolutely a must)
  • Enough power ports and if they are not available a power strip for charging the tablets during training.
