Training - Applied Learning
As part of its mission to share rural development experiences and insights with other practitioners, IIRR offers short-term international and regional “Applied Leaning” courses and workshops on an ongoing basis. Courses are participatory and practice-based using real world experiences and taught by practitioners and experts in the field. Courses draw on IIRR’s forty years of experience in international training and eighty years in rural development work.
International courses are typically two weeks in duration and combine interactive presentations, discussions, exercises and field visits which allow for hands-on application. Courses are delivered by teams of experienced trainers who are sensitive to the local culture.
Participants develop individual action plans to ensure that learning is applied in the field and put into practice in their own organizations and communities.
IIRR also designs customized courses and study programs for teams of eight or more participants. These customized courses provide participants with focused learning which can be adapted to meet the needs of their own unique work environment.
