| dc.description.abstract | The main objective of this study is to investigate the practices and problems of training programs offered by local NGOs on HWj AIDS and RH for secondary school teachers and students and then to conclude by giving recommendations. The study was conducted in three sub cites of Addis Ababa (Arada, Gulele and Yeka) that were selected using cluster sampling technique taking sub-cities as clusters. Then, from these subs cites 4 local NGOs working on HWj AIDS and reproductive health and 6 secondary schools were selected using purposive sampling techniques. Besides, availability sampling technique was used in selecting trainees from all the selected secondary schools, trainers and training officers from the sample local NGOs. Based on this, 92 trainees, 13 trainers and 4 training officers were taken as actual sources of information. Questionnaires, interview and document analysis. were used to collect the necessary data. Results obtained were analyzed using percentage, frequency and Chi-square. The results of the study reveal that the sample organizations didn't assess the training needs to the satisfactory degree due to lack of formal TNA methods. As indicated by trainer respondents (91.7% and 83.3%), the main sources of training needs were found to be knowledge, skills and attitude gaps of individuals and organizational objectives respectively. Objective setting, content and method selection did not involue trainees and other stakeholders rather it were dictated by the trainers and training officers by considering the level of trainees, the time given for the training and the availability of resources. Moreover the selection of the trainers was not based on competition. The training place was appropriate for the training in terms of facilities, arrangement and size and was far from unwanted noises. Training evaluations, reaction level (by 88% trainees and 92.3% trainers) and learning level (by 69.6% trainees and 69.2% trainers) were found to be made in the organizations, X2 (2,n=105)=4.046, p>0.05 and X2 (n= 105)=0.119, p>0.05 respectively. Training programs were constrained by lack of resources. Therefore, it is recommended that local NGOs should allow the participation of stakeholders in training activities through their representatives. The responsible bodies have to develop the financial, manpower and material capacity of local NGOs through training, supervision, and providing resources. The local NGOs have to exert an effort to develop their capacity through searching funds by preparing and arranging music, films, and theatres for the society and by sharing experiences from other benchmarked organizations in training activities. | en_US |
