Human Capacity Development

61BackgroundIn 2005, PASSIA embarked on a project entitled Human Capacity Development, which drew
upon PASSIA’s previous experience in conducting training seminars and aimed at developing
Palestinian human capacity by providing hands-on training in fields where an urgent need for
knowledge and skills enhancement has been identified. The target audience was professionals
working in the governmental, private and NGO sectors who would benefit from an opportunity
to develop their planning, managerial and analytical skills.At the outset of the project, PASSIA firmly believed that human resource development has
never been more necessary within Palestinian society then at this stage in history, not least
with an eye on longer-term developmental requirements. The huge feedback we received upon
advertising the various training programs throughout the year has just confirmed the enormous
demand for training and skills enhancement prevailing in the Palestinian territories.PROJECT OUTLINEDrawing on local specialists and experts from abroad, PASSIA organized a series of training
seminars, each of which incorporated theoretical ap proaches to the given topic, while the
focus was on practical training in relevant procedures and skills (exercises, case studies, and
real-world applications).The training seminars were designed as follows:(a) Application and Selection of Participants. Six to eight weeks before the actual training semi nar
took place, it was advertised in the local press. Application forms were available at PASSIA
and candidates had two or three weeks to apply. A shortlist of applicants was then invited for
interviews, which were – in line with PASSIA’s policy - conducted by an external examiner.
Based on the results of these interviews, the selection of candidates – approximately 20 per
course - was made.(b) Preparatory Reading Period and Writing Assignment. Upon selection, participants were
required to state their and their employee’s acceptance of the placement in writing. Then each
participant was provided with preparatory reading material gathered by the PASSIA Team in
coordination with trainers and lecturers, in order to familiarize him/herself with the basic
course subjects. Each participant was be assigned a topic on which to prepare a pa per for
presentation during the seminar.(c) Intensive Training Seminar. Trainees then attended a five-day training course in which they
learned functional skills imparted by local and/or international experts. Where available or
needed, they were given additional study material and examine relevant case studies. Since the
emphasis was on practical results, exercises provided practical experimenta tion and feedback.(d) Conclusion. The seminar concluded with a second assignment for each participant, the goal of
which was to incorporate what they have learned and their practical experiences into a coherent
project. Certificates were awarded to participants who successfully completed the program.Human Capacity Development662Annual Report 2006 - 2007Training ProgramsIn 2005, the PASSIA team organized and implemented the first five training programs, dealing
with management, planning and communication issues.During 2006/2007, the PASSIA team organized and implemented the following six training
programs: Training Program on Public Relations & Public SpeakingThe Training Program on Public Relations & Public Speaking was designed to meet the needs
