The project will support CaFEC develop a best-in-class training and consulting organization that will support Ethiopia’s financial sector by strengthening the capacity of staff and creating a new benchmark for quality standards. The project will be delivered through the following activities: Training Needs Analysis (TNA) and supply-side market assessment: (i) Develop a competency framework (technical and behavioural) for key functions in the banking sector in Ethiopia and use this as the baseline to conduct an in-depth training needs analysis of managerial, middle level, supervisory and operational level staff in the sector. The TNA will cover banks and MFIs. (ii) Conduct a review of supply-side constraints in the financial services training sector to assess trainer’s skills gaps and identify potential local and international partnerships (iii) Conduct a readiness assessment of CaFEC to assess their current state (existing organizational, staffing, finance, HR and other functions), readiness and criteria for success. The project will inform the scope of Phase 2 which will focus on building the institutional capacity of CaFEC.
