Capacity Development Program

Capacity Development Programs are designed to empower your team.

Through a year-long engagement, our partner organizations become fully autonomous with video production after our collaboration. With their newfound skills and equipment, organizations will be fully capable of integrating video and mobile projectors into future projects and proposals without the need for expensive outsourcing. 
It is our goal that video becomes an innate part of your organization’s communication strategy and the staff of our partner organizations are confident and capable in creating and showing videos for future behavior change needs. 
The capacity development program includes: 
  • Personalized consulting from illuminAid’s experienced leadership team on strategy integration and workflow development
  • Scheduled video conferencing sessions with illuminAid’s team to offer support, troubleshooting, and further skills training
  • Monthly training sessions with local  illuminAid Video Trainer for workshop participants 
  • Access to illuminAid’s network of Local Video Trainers based in the partner’s country 
During the Video Education Workshop, illuminAid works with partner organization staff to establish a scheduled timeline for video creation over the following 12 months. illuminAid also knows that ongoing support is essential to successful incorporation of video into behavior change communication programs. Therefore, technical and creative support is always available by phone or Zoom. A Local Video Trainer will provide in-person follow up at office monthly for three months following completion of the workshop. 
illuminAid also knows that immediate application of skills learned in the Workshop is important for knowledge retention and practice integration. Therefore, illuminAid supports creating three videos and hosting three screenings of these videos within the first three months post-workshop. illuminAid staff will provide technical, remote follow-up every three months for one year to ensure successful adoption of video into behavior change communications strategy. Staff are happy to answer questions, troubleshoot, and help guide projects.
illuminAid is available to help scale and/or launch pilot projects. Once success has been documented, illuminAid can help an organization to procure more equipment and train up additional staff to meet the needs of the program.
