6. Conclusion and Recommendation
The trainings in a general had a positive response from the participants. Attitudes of participants shown
they were interested in the training. Except few, all participants actively attended in the trainings with
curiosity and very actively participated in the group works. It is certain that all participants were not
same level of knowledge but it is important to say that attitudes of participants shown that a certain
number of participants had acquired new and additional knowledge. This is a concern now how and to
what extent contributions of the training will influence to the organizational performance. The RIUD
Project has several indicators in line with the training objectives. Individuals and organization engage
proactively and constructively with one another is essential for achieving the project indicators. It is
important to conduct a post-training monitoring of the performance of individual and organization on
how they behave after the training. This will help determine how learning from the training has been
applied to the workplaces, how far the training has achieved its objective, and what kind of other
capacity development link-supports are required to make the training workplace usage. A post-training
performance monitoring format is given in the Annex III to this the report as example.
