A. Outline

Title of the Training Design

I. Rationale
(The rationale establishes the context of the training and substantiates the need for the
training.)

II. Objectives
(What does the training want to achieve in relation to the problems and needs of the
training participants?)

III. Activity Design

A. Threads (in general, what key values integrate all activities)

B. Themes (what key topics or concepts will be discussed)

C. Input-Process-Output (relationship of topics, methods and target outcomes)

The design may be constructed in terms of the Input-Process-Output (IPO). The Input shows the
concepts that we hope to cover, the Process shows what types of activities will be used, and the Output
itemizes what we expect them to accomplish.

 B. Sample of Training Design

San Fabian (Pangasinan) Sangguniang Kabataan Formation and Training Program

I. Rationale

A major building block of the country is its youth since they are the inheritors of the present
generation and the architects of the country’s future. It is for this reason that the participation of the
youth in governance is being harnessed through the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK). Through the SK, it
is hoped that the youth will appreciate their role in community growth and eventually, nation-
building.

For the SK to be effective, it is necessary that they undergo capacity building activities that
will sharpen their skills in constituency building and sector mobilization. This training program
hopes to equip the SK officers and other youth of selected barangays in San Fabian, Pangasinan with
the tools necessary to become active participants in their communities.

The training program is a collaboration of the municipal government of San Fabian, SK

councils of San Fabian, NetWorks Inc., and UPLB Pahinungód. The municipal government of San
Fabian has been very eager to involve the SK councils in development initiatives that will strengthen
its inter-barangay integrated programs for productive and progressive people and communities. The
SK councils, however, feel that they lack some competencies and capabilities to assume
responsibilities in these initiatives. To address this issue, this training program has been organized.

II. Goal

The training program aims to equip the SK officials with understanding of and capabilities in:
Good youth leadership in their community;
Coordination and facilitation of meetings and projects; and
Youth participation in community development.

III. Activity Design

There are four main running threads and three major themes that integrate the activities,
discussions and exercises in the training program. These are summarized in Table 1. Meanwhile, the
inputs that will be given emphasis, process that the participants will undergo, and outputs expected to
be produced are summarized in Table 2.

building) and Prof. Romel Daya (BSDC cl; MSDC), CDC, UPLB Pahinungód and NetWorks, Inc.
 A. The four running threads of the training program are as follows:
Valuing of self
Teamwork
Community consciousness
Service

B. The activity has three themes, namely:

Ako at Tayo: focuses on knowing one’s self and others leading towards understanding
the value of teamwork and how it can be done
Tayong Kabataan at Komunidad: teamwork will be applied in the community context
specifically as applied to the youth sector; why the youth are important, the value of
community, and the mechanics of the SK will be covered by this theme
Tungo sa Pag-unlad: builds on the previous two themes and focuses on how the youth
can take part in the growth of the community
