Timor-Leste Second Chance Education Project

closed

The development objectives of this Second Chance Education Project are: 1) to increase the number of out-of-school youth and young adults who complete recognized equivalency programs; and 2) to decrease number and/or rate of leavers from each program and level, thus increasing internal efficiency of the program. There are four components to the project. The first component of the project aims to support the development of quality equivalency curriculum, train trainers in its delivery, and strengthen the quality and availability of learning and instructional materials. The second component of the project is improved quality of service delivery. This component includes management strengthening, training and funding of teaching staff and community facilitators, monitoring and evaluation and program promotion. The third component of the project is expansion of local capacity for service delivery through community learning centers. This component will support the evaluation, planning and delivery of expanded service delivery capacity through establishment of up to 65 community learning centers. The fourth component of the project is information, monitoring and evaluation technologies.
