Using Training to Build Capacity for Development: An Evaluation of the World Bank's Project-Based and WBI Training
Based on a recent World Bank evaluation of the contribution of training to capacity development.
Training is a widely used tool for helping countries build their institutions' capacity to achieve development objectives. Many training exercises help trainees to learn new material, but don't improve workplace outcomes. For training to make the leap from individual learning to better workplace outcomes and stronger organizational capacity, its content has to be carefully targeted to the organization's needs. And the trainees need adequate understanding, resources and incentives to apply their learning in the workplace. Good practices in training management can help improve the contribution of training to sustainable organizational capacity.
