BRAVEAURORA ORGANIZES ICT TRAINING FOR GUABULIGA TEACHERS



 As part of its Comprehensive Teacher Incentives Program (TIP), BRAVEAURORA has offered ICT training course to the teachers of St. Michael’s Primary School and JHS. The ICT training courses was provided by the Walewale Computer Lab. The amount of ICT training each term depends on how well the teachers have performed. The better their evaluations at the end of the term, the more training days they earn.
Each term, the Educational Coordinator calculates how many days of ICT training have been earned.
To do so, the coordinator uses the following key as a guide:
CROSS SECTION OF GUABULIGA TEACHERS AT THE ICT TRAINING


FINAL GROUP TERM RATING - DAYS OF ICT TRAINING GIVEN IN THE FOLLOWING TERM
1 or 2 – NO TRAINING – Termly average performance of teachers below 69% and below

5 - LARGE TRAINING (three days) Termly average performances between 90%-100%
