Training Needs Assessment

Description

The Netherlands Fellowship Programme (NFP) are demand-oriented fellowship programmes designed to support organisational development. The NFP are funded by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs from the budget for development cooperation. The overall aim of the NFP is to help alleviate qualitative and quantitative shortages of skilled manpower and to do so within the framework of sustainable capacity-building directed towards reducing poverty in developing countries.

To maximize the fellowships’ impact on capacity-building, NFP-funded training must be linked to the development of organisations.

Under this program, NSCE has been commissioned two Training Needs Assessments assignments, one for the Desert Development Center (DDC) and the other one for the River Transport Authority (RTA). The Desert Development Center is a non-profit, applied research institution established by the American University in Cairo in 1979.
