Definitions:
‘CCT practitioners’ refers to a term we are using to refer to CCT facilitators, partner staff and Tearfund CCT capacity building staff
‘CCT Advocacy & Social Accountability training’ refers to a 3 to 5 days training on advocacy foundations, poverty & advocacy, advocacy cycle, steps of CCT advocacy integration and use of different social accountability tools e.g. Social Audits, community score cards, public expenditure tracking tool, among other tools.
How?
To track the number of CCT practitioners who have completed training on CCT advocacy, organisers or trainers should keep an accurate log of all workshop attendees.
These can also be verified through supporting evidence of the workshops such as attendance, training plans, or photographs.
Where possible, it is advisable for trainers to encourage participants to keep in touch and feedback progress when they use any of these tools with local churches, denominations or networks.
Where Tearfund has had a catalytic role, church denominations or other allies should be encouraged to take this approach to help them effectively support trainers.
Who collects?
Training coordinators or trainers should collect attendance of CCT practitioners trained and capture this in trainers' progress reports.
This should then be shared with Tearfund every 6 months. After collecting the data from the trainers, country teams should feed this into the TRACK system where it can be validated by the advocacy advisors and the Social Accountability Advisor. If the Social Accountability Adviser or Advocacy Adviser has conducted training, they should check that this is being recorded at country level reporting.
If Tearfund is playing a catalytic role, the collection will be done by partner denomination trainers/personnel and can be shared with Tearfund at the discretion of the partner.
