1. BACKGROUND
1.1 Introduction
Though the youth have crucial roles to play in national development, they are often neglected not broughton board the development agenda. They are often left empty and considered non-participating actors in thenational development. This has brought a gaping vacuum in the development be that local and nationallevels. .
In the midst of these is a lot of social issues that ought to be addressed not only by government, but non-
state actors, civil society groups, CBOs, youth and others whose collective efforts, if harnessed, will make a
big difference in terms of achieving national and local development objectives and targets. This calls for
need to provide opportunity to the youth be visionary, creative and develop their skills to initiate, develop
and manage development projects that will help address socio-economic needs.
This calls for the need to strengthen capacity and develop the skills that will enable youth to initiate the
development and management of projects out of local base resources to address socio-economic needs..
It is for this need that the Project Management Institute Educational Foundation (PMIEF) a non-profitglobal organization provides resources and support to foster the development and advancement of projectmanagement knowledge, as well as to advance the awareness and understanding of project managementas a profession. The Foundation acts as a proactive catalyst through the funding of projects that raise theawareness of project management in global and local communities, introduces and promotes the use of project management as a life skill and recognizes leadership in project management, among other objectives
Impact based in Ghana, in collaborative partnership with PMIEF, developed training that sought tostrengthen the capacity of 50 high school leavers, students and youth to move from inertia and be able to
identify, select develop and manage projects within their communities and in the help to create a better society.

2. WORKSHOP ORGANISATION
2.1 Methodology
In order to ensure effective transfer of practical knowledge and to build participants’ understanding and
application of skills acquired, the Facilitator made little use of the traditional lecturing approach. Rather, he
made extensive use of:
• Presentations
• Activities (Indoor)
• Experiential Learning
• Experience Sharing
• Group Work/Discussion
• Presentations
• Energizers/Teasers
The training programme was organized for High School Leavers and High School students and members of
Community-based groups that helped to acquire a skill-mix of participants with varied degrees of
background and experience to share
2.2 Materials/Instruments Used
The materials used in the workshop varied from activity to activity. This variety allowed for different learningstyles and personal preferences to be appreciated in the workshop agenda. The following is a detailed listof materials/instruments used along with the LCD projector and flip charts for illustrations:
The following were also used as ENERGIZERS:

• Pictures of “General Knowledge Exercise” and a material on “Discover Yourself ”.
• Practical Problems as case study for group discussions.
2.3 Programme Venue and Duration
The venue for the Workshop was Messwill Hotel located in New-Weija, Accra and the duration of theworkshop was fourteen (14) days from the 28th of February to 13thMarch 2010.
2.4 Participation and Team of Consultants
39 participants comprising high school students, high school leavers and community based - youth leaders,participated in the workshop. (Refer to Appendix I for participants list ).
The Chief Executive Officer of RIMCS Consult, Mr. Kwabena Owusu-Mensah was the lead facilitator for the
workshop. He co-facilitated the workshop with Mrs. Angela Adama – CEO for IMPACT - Ghana. Daniel, the
Projects Officer at IMPACT-Ghana rapporteured the workshop.
2.5 Workshop Process
The Facilitators adopted an interactive participatory process and multi-method approach to the workshop.
The process created an empowering working environment and total involvement by all participants. The
mode of delivery and participation in the workshop were:
• Group/Individual illustrative Sessions
• Group Discussions
• Plenary Sessions
• Reflections
• Creative Drawings
In order to achieve the targeted workshop outputs, the Facilitators adopted a wide range of tools and
approaches for the workshop. This variety allowed for maximum interaction by all participants during the
sessions ingroup/individual work; discussions and illustrative sessions.
Reflections served as a review of the previous days’ activities and feedback served as a summary of the
opinions and reactions from participants from which improvements were made on a daily basis to the
workshop.
2.6 Outline of Workshop Activiti es and OutcomesThe workshop sessions began with a prayer, introduction of participants, brief overview of the purpose and
objectives of the workshop as well as the expected output. Participants then sought clarifications, made
suggestions and gave their feedback and comments regarding the agenda for the day. The detail workshop
time table is attached as Appendix II.
Composition of small groups within each workshop was done randomly using colour coding. Each
participant was given a card with a colour. They were used for the various different activities in a day’s
agenda.
Participants appreciated the opportunity to work with each other as most of them were meeting for the firsttime.

3. EVALUATION OF TRAINING ACTIVITIES Learning is an important aspect of any training program that is, learning must occur for training to beeffective. But more importantly is getting trainees to apply what have been learnt first to self and moreimportantly on the job (transfer of training). Training effectiveness is thus dependent to a large extent on thetraining methodology and delivery.
The workshop was effectively designed to conform to the Instructional Design Process so as to facilitateparticipants learning of job-related competencies, which included knowledge, skills and ultimately behaviorsthat are critical for successful job performance. It deviated from the traditional training method that treatedthe participant as a recipient of directions and content and made use of the Malcolm Knowles’ adultlearning method (andragogy) which:
• Provide participants with the need to know why they are learning.• Provide participants with the need to be self-directed.• Allow participants to bring more work-related experiences into the learning situation.• Allow participants to enter into a learning experience with a problem-centered approach to
learning.
Other areas participants were asked to comment on are:
• What did they like best about the workshop?
• How can organizers improve on the workshop?
• What other comments would they like to offer the workshop organizers?
The participants’ end-of-training evaluation required participants to provide information on how beneficialthe various training activities have been to them, their likes and dislikes and how they intend to translateand particularize the lessons and skills acquired from the training to the real work situation.
3.1 Participants Evaluation
Participants’ analysis of training evaluation revealed they have acquired practical tools and knowledge for better management of self, people and resources to achieve the optimum. Participants were however quickin pointing out how easy their acquired knowledge and skill could be transferred to the job as a result of thefollowing.
1) Presentation style
• Humorous• Interesting• Participatory
2) Workshop methodology • Practical
3) Programme Content • Detailed and Relevant• Challenging
4) Workshop Environment was
• Serene • Conducive
Specifically, the participants’ response to the evaluation questions are summarized in the table following:

What Other Comments Would You
Like To Offer The Workshop
Organizers
1. It was very educative2. The teasers used were very good.3. The presentations were very detailed and
good.4. Experience sharing by participants.5. Good atmosphere/Good humor/Relax
approach. Opportunity to interact withalmost every kind of person
6. The discussions were very practical and atrue reflection of what is pertaining at themoment.
7. Excellent materials and presentation8. The facilitators were very good and
interacted well with participants9. The participatory nature of the workshop
and the experience showing by participantsand facilitators
10. Discussions and work in small groups aswell as discussions in plenary
1. Invitation to participants should besent on time.
2. Participants should be involved inorganizing such workshops toensure full participation.
3. More teasers should be used inthe workshop.
4. It should be organized everyquarter with more participants.
1. Certificate of participation should bgiven to participants immediatelyafter the programme.
2. Follow ups should be done toensure that what was learnt at theworkshop is being implemented.
3. The workshop manuals should begiven to us before we start thesessions to enable us better participate.
4. The workshop should be organizeevery year.
5. The workshop period should beextended to five days.
3.1 Consultants Evaluation
• Participation was very high. On the average 95% of all participants attended the training workshop.The rest 5% could not attend because of other engagements that were equally important.
• Once introduced to the participatory methodology, all participants became very active in the trainingand were willing to learn more about themselves and others in an effort to improve situations in aworking environment.
•
It was also evident that the time allotted to the training programme in relation to the expectations andcontent was not enough. Much was accomplished under pressures of short timelines for eachthematic area.
4. CHALLENGES AND PROBLEMS
• The observed challenges during the programme were basically over-generalization of critical issueswithin the training – although all participants share the view that there are problems relating to projectidentification, selection and implementation, working through what these problems are and how they
affect initiatives was challenging and valuable.
7/28/2019 PM_training_in_Ghana.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/pmtraininginghanapdf 17/41
• Behaviors exhibited during the workshop that slowed down the process for the large group includedparticipants coming and going from the training room and comments about the process before wehad reached a point of usefulness with an activity or discussion. The experience and maturity of Facilitators proved very valuable here so as to keep the workshop on track and useful to the majorityof participants.
5. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE WAY FORWARD
Another workshop should be organized to evaluate the implementation of the proposed project thatparticipants were assigned to undertake as per their project proposal.
Organizers should provide support to participants to undertake their projects.
Since there were challenges during the group work, another workshop should be organized on TeamBuilding and working in a Team.
A series of workshop on the same topic (Project Management) should be organized for youth of various groups, churches, schools, associations etc…. to encourage more youth to undertake localprojects to help their communities by so doing creating jobs for themselves.
6.
CONCLUSION
By far, the workshop could be rated successful. Generally, participants’ comments and evaluation
confirmed that they were satisfied with the training programmes as per each thematic area, especially the
topics treated, methods used in facilitation and resource materials provided. In addition, though participants
agreed that the topics treated were relevant, they were of the opinion that more days were required for
deeper analysis and further deliberation.
