Workshop evaluation forms were filled and collected from the participants at the end of the day.

This was done in order to gain better insight about the different aspects of the workshop. All participants showed satisfaction with the achievements of the program objectives stating that the training met their expectations. They also believed that the acquired knowledge would help them in their professional fields in future. The objectives of the each session were clearly explained and stated to the participants with the content being easy to follow. However they did suggest adding more field base work along with theory. The participants showed satisfactions with the trainer and stated that they had full command of the subject. The group activities were appreciated as well by the participants.

Feedback Trainer’s Feedback: The trainers believed that the participants were eager to learn and share the knowledge. Their backgrounds were relevant to the scope of the program and hence not only were the participants better informed but also stood at gaining the most out of this workshop.

The participants should have been provided with the actual guidelines so that the workshop could have rendered more utility to them and they could have asked questions in real time, as opposed to seeing screenshots of the guidelines on the screen.

Participants’ Feedback: The participants insisted on provision of CHBC guidelines before the beginning of the workshop.

Budgetary allowance for provision of support material needs to be made.
