Other live coach trainings on all the steps of the electoral cycle can be delivered, covering these topics, among others:

  • Review of the Electoral Framework

  • Delimitation of electoral boundaries
  • Logistical, operational, recruitment and procurement plans
  • Security of elections
  • Civic and Voter Education
  • Voter and Candidates Registration including out of country
  • Preventing-Mitigating-Managing Electoral Conflicts and Conflict Mapping
  • Domestic Electoral Observation, accreditation and parallel vote tabulation
  • E-day operations and vote counting
  • Results transmission, aggregation and proclamation
  • Electoral disputes resolution mechanisms
  • Evaluation and audit of electoral processes including voter registers

The methodology used for training will be a hybrid one, meaning that it will consist of a combination of training tools: distance learning, online training, individual and group coaching, group works and platforms for experience sharing by participants and experts, preparation of individual learning paths in view of exam tests. The way for students and/or project experts to interact with each other can be:

  • Individual coaching upon request from students;
  • At the end of specific lessons, regular coaching/discussion sessions with students following a given module via Zoom Training platform.

This methodology increases the commitment of the enrolled personnel, contributing to the reduction of potential dropouts.
