Acknowledgement
A training program is regarded as investment to human capital ir-respect of its cost recorded as
expense. None of the capacity building program can achieve the devised objectives unless
utmost commitment is ensured from the High Ups. Such extended gesture provides life line to a
training program; as rest of the structure to the grass root level even to the participants and
ultimate beneficiaries of the program, lies on the self-less commitment and ownership of the
program by the top level management.

Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | Executive Summary 6
Executive Summary
In pursuance of devised training objectives; program commenced as per inception report and
first training commenced on 10th
May, 2010. In south Punjab Region, 09 Districts: Muzaffargarh,
Layyah, Multan, Dear Ghazi Khan, Rajan Pur, Rahim Yar Khan, Bahawalpur, Lodhran and
Bahawalnagar, are taken into account. There are 189 registered participants comprising to both
PHED Technical and Community Development Unit Staff, in all above nine districts.
As per 03 day training agenda, sessions as per manual are unfolded in the workshops. The
community development unit is seen more enthusiastic and participative in the workshops,
believed as the reason of being first ever training program arranged for the staff members since
they got appointment in PHED. The technical unit has also been paying attention to the training
content, but experienced as having thrust to acquire knowledge and skills relating to their core
work assignments: like designing and technicalities of water supply scheme projects. In most of
the training sessions we received feedback as technical unit intend to have training pertaining to
their core work assignments and eager acquire the use of new technology in delivery of their
assignments.
Total of 189 registered participants in 09 Districts of South Punjab Region; over all 87.90% of
participants attended the training program wherein community development unit has been
upfront in maintaining good attendance in training sessions. In most of the training sessions, the
focal person(s) at District level i.e. the Executive Engineer attended the training sessions on
regular basis for three days. The District Layyah has been at the top in maintaining 100%
attendance level in all three days of training where as Bahawalnagar is seen as lowest
attendance level with 70% while in other districts attendance level has been in between 85% to
95%. A summary on participants’ attendance is provided herein where as detailed analysis
given as per Annexure-A.
Those participants were awarded with the certificates of participation attended at least for two
days of training sessions. Alongwith the certificates, participants were provided with the group
photo as well as list of participants serving as memorable of the event.
Likewise training, every event has an opportunity cost; which is very much justified with the level
of achievement of objectives both in qualitative and quantitative manner. For the reason, a
coherent training evaluation kit was developed (as per format provided in the inception report)
and used to assess the training outcomes covering different dimensions: pre & post test
analysis, participants’ self assessment, Trainers’ performance analysis and over all training
program evaluation inviting participants’ suggestions to improve future programs. District wise of
the training, a comprehensive analysis is done as per Annexure(s)
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 1.Background & Introduction 7
1. Background & Introduction
The Punjab Devolved Social Services Program seeks to achieve progress with the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs) related to poverty, gender, education, health, and water supply and
sanitation (WSS). The Program’s objective is to strengthen devolved social services for a more
equitable, efficient, effective, and sustainable delivery of social services. The Program is built
around three principal policy outcomes: (i) realigning intergovernmental relations to support
devolved social services; (ii) rationalizing and setting minimum standards for social services;
and (iii) strengthening the public accountability mechanisms and promoting public-private
partnership. The Program covers all 36 district governments and 34 program Tehsil (town)
municipal administrations (TMAs).
The Community Development Unit (CDU) of the Public Health Engineering Department (PHED)
has assumed the important role of promoting community participation in design, implementation
and operation & maintenance of water supply schemes. The recently established CDU is staffed
with one Community Development Officer (CDO) and six Community Based Motivators (CBMs)
in each district of the Punjab Province. Additionally there are around 3611 Water Supply and
Sanitation Community Organisations (WASCOs) running water supply schemes installed by
PHED. The PHED has identified the need for technical assistance (TA) to strengthen its
Community Development Unit for improved rural water management and sanitation services at
community level. Additionally the department wants to build the capacity of both its engineering
section on effective involvement of communities in design, implementation and operation &
maintenance of water supply schemes.
As we have observed, most of the development work carried out results into wastage of tax
generated resources. Same is the case with water supply and sanitation schemes as well. The
main reason has been seen as non-involvement of end beneficiaries - the community people for
whom the schemes is actually implemented; are not taken into account at any stage of the
project cycle. Hence the result is obvious. The community dame cares of such high cost
projects that can not benefit as per their requirements. On one side, where the competent
officials feel that they can do sound decisions and know better which of the service is crucial to
the public; gets reaction of the public being irrelevant to all such matter. There is no sense of
ownership prevails in the community; and at the end such development schemes remain
unsustainable.
Therefore, such training program is evolved in order to strengthen the capacity of CBMs on
board in CDU as well as PHED technical personnel decision making process in lines with taking
community desire and wants into account. This is a sound initiative basically to get the
behaviour change towards community mobilization so that they feel the ownership in the project
to sustain in the long run.
Therefore, capacity building program is designed to have CDU and PHED technical staff sits
together in a training workshop to equip them with handy skills to work on the water schemes
more effectively. PHED in south Punjab region, comprising to 09 districts entrusted to the team
of four members: Zafar Ahmad (TL) with Social Scientist Zubair Ahmad, having support from
Ehsan Nadir and Ali Adnan Aman as logistics Assistant(s) to conduct training session in the
above region.
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 2.The Training Aim and Approach 8
2. The Training Aim and Approach
The training program commenced obviously with the training schedule as elaborated in the
inception report; but in pursuance of following training objectives:-
 To enhance the capacity of the CDU and engineering section staff in community
mobilization and participation.
 To improve effective interaction between PHED and CBOs (WASCOs)
In order to achieve above milestones, the training mixes theory with practical applications,
introducing a range of interactive training methods, such as group discussions and practical
exercises. Training proceedings carried as session plan; this has been key strategy to utilize the
time on floor effectively. Participatory tools like: Group work, Role Play, Brain Storming,
Energizers, Audio – Visual presentations are used to make the session interactive.
 PHED focal person at district level i.e. Executive Engineer (Heading PHED at district level)
is contacted first requesting him to direct the staff to participate in the training session
alongwith maintaining good attendance level during sessions.
 Logistic arrangements for training workshops ensured well before commence of each
training workshop. Keeping in view the far long districts; sufficient and necessary days are
taken into account between conduct of every training event.
 Each participant is provided with a training kit: nicely prepared filing bag with workshop topic
printed on it, a writing pad bearing sufficient and necessary quality papers, eraser and
sharpener. Every participant is also provided with nicely printed name tag. Also, name tag to
be put on the desk for each participant was arranged. This strategy worked fine to grab the
attention of each participant during the sessions by address him/her with his/her own name.
 Congenial working environment is ensured by providing air-conditioning facilities,
comfortable seating arrangement, necessary audio-visual aids, noise free learning
environment and delicious lunch and refreshments.

3. Session Notes
As per inception report submitted to TAMA – Team Leader, this report is reflection on the
activities taken as per plan and performed in the field i.e. concerned with the training sessions
held there at. Following is the description on summarizing training session by session notes
accumulated over the 09 training workshops:-
Session 1.1 Introduction
The workshop(s) is always inaugurated with recitation from versus of the Holly Quran followed
by the welcome note from the TAMA - Team. Where ever, the Executive Engineer took some
time out from his pre-occupied assignments and grace the occasion in the workshop with his
presence; he was invited for inaugural address and sought view point on the scope of the
training program.
The participants took keen interest in the introduction to participants’ activity “Hum Tum”; and
received as improvement in their presentational skills as they were supposed to introduce their
counter-part, in pairs, on the floor.
The training agenda was discussed and hard copy provided to each participants; that developed
a sketch on what to do during the course of the training days. The participants were invited their
expectations about the training; and then linked to the devised training objectives. It was found
good that participants’ expectation almost 100% matched with the training objectives except for
expectations from some technical staff interested to learn how to use the technical equipment
and design of water supply scheme.
Pre-Test to assess the learning before training is conducted to come up with the understanding
of participants on the concepts supposed to be discussed in the training outline. It was
welcomed by the participants without showing annoyance on pre-examining the participants’
capabilities. This activity helped in devising the strategy to unfold the training content as per
level of understanding of the participants.
The introduction session is lasted with chalk out of Code of Conduct to proceed the session in a
smooth fashion and to observe the punctuality in break hours and attendance in letter and spirit.
Session 1.2 Right Based Approach
This session is floored with the objective to refresh and sensitized the participants on
understanding of RIGHT in other words applying RESPONSIBILITY to the individual. Its
inception and development from time to time was gone through the presentation.
The participants were brain-stormed on the word right and concluded with the precise definition
on RIGHT: as claim to respect, protect and fulfill. The session was taken in plannery through
power point presentation.
The convention(s): the Last Sermon of PBUH, Magna Carta, UDHR, CEDAW, and CRPD were
discussed with the participants.
In the second part of the session, the definition of governance and application of good
governance characteristics discussed and participants view point taken “as implementation is
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 10
ideally done good ir-respect of some lashes in policy, if prevailed. At length debate carried out;
participants get involved. A commitment extended in the sense that by exerting self-less efforts
to work with the Right Based approach can turn the situation to achieve supply scheme
sustainable.
Session 1.3 Vision
This session is critical to the extent to sensitize the PHED personnel to own their own PHED
vision with the approach to deliver in a coherent way. Session commenced with the
brainstorming on the definition of vision and probing on the PHED defined vision statement.
After having deliberate discussion PHED vision analyzed on characteristics: comprehensive,
positive, relative, participative, priority based, problem solving and concise & to the point.
The participants came to know on the importance of vision as action without vision is mere a
dream; wastage of time. Action and vision together put vim and extra ordinary energy vital to
communicate effectively with the community.
The participant emphasized the purpose of adopting PHED vision in their routine assignment.
Such support encourage the team; and keep such statements: PHED vision and goal all the
time in mind would lead to develop integrated efforts between the technical and community
development staff towards on main objective of delivery of assignments with effective
participation of community with the dream to meet dream of sustainable project.
The participants came to know that dissemination of PHED vision in the community would give
them feel that PHED personal is with the community and they are here to exert self-less efforts
in supreme interest of one cause – “Yeh Ghar to Aakhir Apna hiey”.
The session wrapped with the emphasis on pursuance of Millennium Development Goal # 07
that places obligations to PHED personal to provide optimum quality and acceptable quality of
water on sustainable basis, at least to half of the needy and deserving communities deprived
from clean and safe drinking water.
Here as under some extract on the day end participants’ comments regarding session on
“Vision’; that clearly portrayed the extent of eagerness, enthusiasm and commitment to include
and get support from vision statement in performance of work.
 Concept on PHED Vision was explained and understood.
 Integrated efforts between PHED Technical and CDU staff can be ensured by imitating the
philosophy of PHED vision.
 Learnt techniques to use vision statement during the course of work and interaction with the
community
 Learnt skill how to use vision statement and exploit community to achieve their effective
participation during the course of work
 Idiomatic discussion on vision enjoyed a lot.
 Learnt to covert PHED vision into practical application during discharge of responsibilities.
 Majority of the participants in 09 districts, shared that first time, they came to know about
Vision and goal of PHED
 This session developed a sense of responsibility as “we should work hard as much as
possible in the interest of department”.
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 11
 Such session sensitized and provided self-motivation to exert high level of efforts to use the
tool of vision in getting work done effectively and efficiently
 Such learning in the session, provided us a tool in using to get community confidence in
order to make them agree towards fulfill of objectives (comments from CBMs)
Session 2.1 Community Participation
This session is the core session with respect to the title of the workshop. Session commenced
with brainstorming on definition of “Community” and participants view point is taken on board.
With different like minded view point preferably taken from PHED Technical staff; concluded
with the people living in a territorial jurisdiction having interest in sharing and production of
financial and social resources – termed as community.
Then discussion leaded to the difference in stakeholder and influential entities; and discussed
converted into debate that an influential may not be a stakeholder but reverse may be true.
Different stakeholder (beneficiary) in the community were discussed and emphasized that such
deprived and normally ignored persons, persons living with disability should be engaged in
participatory development.
The structure of participatory development was discussed. The stages of social mobilization:
sensitization, realization, conceptualization, organization (motivation, implementation,
monitoring).
The participants shared that mobilization is stated with the philosophy to change the behaviour
towards social development. It is a process in which people are made enable to discuss their
problems, make plans to solve them, utilize their existing resources, solve them and sustain it.
The good qualities of a CBM were taken on the floor. The participants spoke in recognizing with
the sense to desire of having such attributes in each of personality involved in community
mobilization.
The session ended with the focus on participatory development and using tools of mobilization
and community effective participation towards sustainable project.
Session 2.2 Role & Responsibilities
In this session, Role and Responsibilities relating to the job assignments of every participant are
discussed; with the session objective as fully conversant of job assignments really turn to
effective deliverables.
The participants were invited to come up with their view point as they understand about the
terms: TORs, Job Description and Job Specifications. Almost in every training sessions, some
interesting meaning to these terms came resulting to that there is dire need of applications
under sound HR practices.
All participants were divided into groups by designation and asked to write down the tasks they
perform in lines from identification to handing over of waster supply scheme. After group work,
participants came on floor through a group leader and presented the tasks they perform. At
length Q/A were taken after each presentation. Most of the participants told as being first time
they came to know the task their colleagues perform.
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 12
The participants stressed that a comprehensive written TOR document must be provided to
each employee so that every one must be conversant not only to his/her job responsibilities but
with others job description as well.
It was observed that if such application tool is applied in letter and spirit would leave healthy
influence in exercise of applying integrated efforts between CDU and PHED Technical Staff.
Some extract from the feedback of participants on the session is taken here as under; the
participants speak as:-
 Learnt the concept and importance of having documented TORs
 First time, it happed to have debate on developing the understanding on TORs
 Written TORs document must be provided to each cadre of employee working in PHED at
District level. Having gone through the contents of training session on Role and
Responsibilities; it translates that understanding with oneself own TORs as well as with
TORs of other colleagues would provide trust, strengthen integrated efforts to create
coordinated efforts to perform the assignments effectively.
 It was learnt that first “plan the work then work the plan”
Session 2.3 W&SS Activities and Project Cycle Management
The session started with the description on learning outcome that participants would be able to
the application of new development ideas in planning process and to make sure community
participation in the planning process of the scheme.
The participants welcomed the brainstorming and take part in developing consensus of project
cycle phases and indentify the phases/stages of PCM.
In the plannery, it was discussed that each phase: identification of the scheme, designing of the
scheme, implementation and monitoring; the skill that are required to be used. The participants
shared that in these activities community capacity building is required in order to get effective in
put in design of the water supply of scheme. PHED personnel have the responsibility to discuss
merits and de-merit of the proposal and come up with the recommendations that the kind of plan
would be beneficial and acceptable for the community. Such community involvement would
enhance their confidence and lead towards ownership.
A prominent activity during the course of implementation and monitoring; community may be
well versed with their role and responsibility. This would exercise healthy influence and get
willingness to exert high level of efforts from the community.
In second part of the session, participants were involved in a group work providing lists of
activities (listed at random) require to be performed from identification of the scheme to handing
over to the community; and the participants were asked to list down number of activities in order
with reference to the phases of PCM. The participants were also requested to write down the
designation who is supposed to perform that specific activity.
The participants enjoyed the activity and refresh their understanding on actually who is
responsible in performing the activity in focus. This enhanced their learning as well as feel of
sense of responsibility to perform.
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 13
Session 3.1 Communication Skills
After completing core work-related sessions, before to conclude as per training plan; all the time
important session on communication skills was conducted by the Social Scientist. Session
commenced with the ice-breaking activity. Most renowned activity named as “Chine’s Whisper”
was initiated to get the participants realized how communications changes the original context
when carried from person to person. The activity ended with the explanation of communication
model; but participants showed some concerns that the model has been silent about “feedback”
component – an integral ingredient to make communication effective. Some arguments were
exchanged on the point of contention; but trainer did not agree even on “receiver’s response
can be treated as feedback” as claimed by the participants. The discussion left by linking the
demonstrated model of communication with the “JO-HARI Window” – the most appropriate tool
helpful for “SELF” analysis. The four parts of SELF window: Open, Hidden, Blind and Dark;
were keenly observed, shared, understood and learning enjoyed by the participants.
The activity lasted with the lesson learned: that in normal course of life, we just concentrate of
apparent things in making our judgments in communication and in other spheres as well. We
can come up with sound decisions by concentrating the things very minutely. However, the
participants enjoyed it.
Then session came live with explanation of definition on communication directing the discussion
to tools of communication. Slideshow explained; but at the point of “ownership of the problem –
let the problem be handled to which it pertains” developed contention as the social scientist
insisted that there should be no ‘arbitrary” all the way to settle the issues among the persons to
which matter pertains; where as participants were of the view that “arbitration” process cannot
be ruled out to address the problem and be useful at the discretion of the owner(s) of the
problem. The communication problem can be strengthened to empower people through
dialogue at their own in order to develop effective communication. However, session proceeded
with the slideshow on “I” statements covering that listening blocks, stroking, reflecting listening,
observation, etc. Session wrapped up with the observation of the participants, “as we say
communication is a two way process; feedback an essential component be included in the
model presented in the session.” For example, in telephonic conversation; feedback is obvious.
Session lasted with the delivery of printed stuff on “Four stages of awareness” to participants.
- From evaluation, it is revealed that 95% of the participants think that topic is most relevant to
their work.
- Most of the participants considered the session important to their assignments and enjoyed
the session at large.
- The participants considered that application of effective communication skills can make
delivery of their job assignments in a coherent way.
- Some of the participants raised observations that delivery of the session has not been in
adequate manner.
Session 3.2 Team Work
Another session relevant to personality and career development and to strengthen the
participation skills to communicate effectively with the community and to maintain sound
working relationships among the PHED team members (both CDU and Technical staff) was
included in the training agenda with the topic: Team work covering the sub-ingredients of team
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 14
strengths and limitations, individual role in the team, creating positive team culture,
characteristics of effective team, using strengths and team phases & team roles.
For the purpose, the session initiated with an activity “Completing Broken Squares” by dividing
participants into group of 5 persons rest of them taken as observer.
The group work lasted at elapse of 10 minutes or before any of all team members completed
the task. At the end the observers were asked to come up with their observations on following
prominent questions:-
 Who was ready to give his/her pieces to other participants, after completing his/her own
square?
 Who remained isolated after completing his/her square?
 Who gave up the efforts and remained despair?
 When the team started to cooperate?
After the stipulated period of time, participants assembled in the session with all requirements
made available on the floor. The Resource person highlighted the attributes that team work
efforts are more fruitful as compared to doing by an individual with lack of coordination. The key
learning through this activity were linked to the definition of the team providing the concept of
people working altogether under one specific purpose.
Individual learn from each other and complex projects have better chances to get completed
with the collective efforts of entrusted team; provides greater strengths. Also, team has to face
challenges of dilution of responsibility, distribution of credit and Ego of conflicting personalities.
Through a slideshow participants were informed about the role(s) in forming, storming,
performing and norming of team stages.
In order to make the session interactive, participants were invited to share the expression as
they might have been first time in the community. In responses to the participants’ views;
discussion focused on the obligations need to comply with and overcome the deficiencies:
shyness, un-bounded influenced.
Then an energizer/joke was shared in order to make session live followed by the guidelines to
deliver presentation in an effective way. At the point of capturing the audience; the participants
shared that there is difference between capturing and drawing attention of the audience.
Session feedback states that:-
- Participants appreciated the session for learning as in the entire length of service they have
been ignorant about such techniques. They had been busy as being remained in their office
room most of the time and could not spare some time to think about it.
- As per written comments, most of the participants enjoyed learning in the session as being
first time encountered with presentation techniques.
- Mostly, participants remarked as “learned how to organize work in team for achieving
object
The session ended in plannery sharing that “coming together is beginning, keeping together is
progress and working together is success”.

6. Participants’ Learning Analysis
For the purpose of quantitative analysis of workshop objectives; a questionnaire was designed
in mixture of multiple choices as well as open-ended questions to assess the knowledge and
skill of the participants possessed before and after the training workshop.
The pre and post test is applied to all attendees in the training workshop; and district wise
comparison is given here as under:-

However in each district, session wise learning comparison regarding pre & post test analysis
can be examined as per Annexure – B.
The above evaluation tool is used by the training team to assess the learning outcome of
participants.
In addition, another evaluation tool is also devised in the sense participants are invited to rate
their knowledge and skills before and after conduct of training program. Therefore an overall
workshop evaluation is conducted by inviting participants’ self-assessment of their knowledge
and skills as how they rate themselves in getting competency before and after the training:-
The evaluation parameter is defined as:-
a. Low b. B/w Low – Medium
c. Medium d. B/w Medium – High e. High
The Participants rated themselves in regard to competency before and after the training is over;
session-to-session district wise glimpses are given as per Annexure – B.

Note:-
In conclusion that:-
- Above analysis in terms evaluating workshop facilitator’s performance; in graphical presentation only
such responses are taken into consideration vide which participants responded and recognized the
performance as excellent. In result to that percentage is shown against each of the session under
respective parameters.
- It is pertinent to mention that remaining percentage is divided in four level of performance(s)
segregated each of the participants’ response as Agree, Neither Agree nor Disagree, Disagree and
Strongly Disagree with reference to desired level of competency of workshop facilitator.
- Therefore, in comparison of percentage achieved as above; does not confer that facilitator, e.g. with
less that 50% are low performer as rest of percentage is composed with remaining response from
level 4 to 1 as shown above in the respective table.
- It is observed that 50 – 80 percent of the responses from the participants suggest that facilitators’
performance has been excellent.

Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 9. Conclusions 22
9. Conclusions
 As PHED Technical staff is engaged in somehow behaviour change approached based
training workshop getting their extended coordination for joining hands with CDU for
effective delivery of assignments. As training objectives were made conversant with the
participant during the introduction session; apparently, it depicted from the gestures of the
participants i.e. from PHED Technical Staff that “there is nothing for them regarding their
core work assignments like developing a proposal scheme, use of sophisticated tools,
survey techniques, developing maps and reports etc”. Somewhat they felt as have nothing
as for as engineers and SDOs are concerned. If such manual is strengthened with at least
technical session related to the core work assignments of engineering staff; it would have
been much more beneficial and even to strengthen the integrated efforts between technical
and CDU staff as well.
 Most of participants seemed complaining about their pay structure. It is not performance
based. Therefore the personnel deliver with utmost commitment remain with same benefits,
enjoy the same motivational applications as of personnel who deliver in usually manner.
 In the last quarter i.e. April – June of financial year, most of the public sector organizations
are busy in closing their deliverables. Same has been experienced while conducting
workshops in the last quarter for PHED. This has been the main reason for drop out/left-over
participants. Therefore, in future trainings for PHED personnel should be planned preferably
in first quarter of the financial year.
 While conduct of training sessions in south Punjab districts; it is experienced that fresh
blood inducted in PHED in terms of establishing CDU and considerable human resource on
technical side; is seemed to be committed in delivery of services. In spite that majority of
PHED staff members specifically were unaware of PHED vision and stated goal before
conduct of training but they looked committed and dedicated to deliver regardless what the
pay structure is applied to them. More than 80% of the human resource were required
training as since their appointment have been unable to grab the opportunity of having
training sessions. This training program proved as a blessing for them.
 As suggested by the participants, we also include that training program very much relevant
to the core assignments of technical staff be focused while planning of capacity building
program in future.
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 10.Recommendations 23
10. Recommendations
In pursuance of 09 training sessions, as per feedback from the participants, following
recommendations are summarized giving priority to participants view point:-
 In such training workshops community people should also be invited in this training
workshop so that effective interaction and solutions be generated on the schemes which
are not owned by the community and seen in large number as un-sustainable. This
move may turn to get non-functional schemes into functional and sustainable.
 In such training workshops TA/DA (Delegate Allowance) should be given to the
participants, ir-respect of trainings falling on Saturday.
 Training Manual should be comprehensive as of training manual developed for JROs
technical training.
 For Technical staff, separate training must be arranged. Trainings on imparting technical
knowledge skills like use of instrument like AUTO CAD for mapping, tools for surveying
and leveling, design of water supply program “LOOP”; should be conducted.
 Such Training programs should be on continues bases.
 In next training program, all CBMs should be engaged in a separate program; as in
presence of their High Ups, CBMs may not confidently participate.
 An exposure visit to a scheme must be arranged as part of such training program
 Theoretical training content should be supported with more “problematic information”
experienced in the field.
 In future, training session should not be conducted in the month of May & June; as
workload is increased in these months and due to financial year end closing, participants
may not spare precious time and pay due attention in training sessions.
 Training session daily duration should be from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.; however number
of days in a training program may be increased.
 Community participation can be taken effectively and water supply scheme may be
owned by the community in case bill tariff applied to the scheme is taken as “tariff
applicable to agricultural side” instead of imposing commercial tariff to run the scheme.
Such policy decision would provide leverage to the community and nice cushion in
regard to settle monthly bill payment by them.
 Planning really matters. Every management cadre is unanimously agreed that a well
planned scheme can turn better results. Participants suggested and requesting to the
High Ups that announce the schemes (suppose to be implemented in a year) in initial
quarter of working year and let CDU and PHED technical staff sufficient and necessary
time to work on with interaction of community and then expect the deliverables otherwise
the objective of CDU would go without fruitful results.
Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 11.Emerging Issues 24
11. Emerging Issues
 Going through 09 districts in south Punjab region, and having formal as well as informal
interaction with the participants comprising of CDU and PHED technical staff; it is
apparently seen and in some session; CDU has been somewhat demanding to strengthen
coordination skills require to be extended by the PHED technical staff members, in order to
generate sense of ownership of CDU in PHED. Community Development Unit somehow
showed grievances of being not taken on equally basis into account by PHED technical
staff. As being newly inception unit, CDU whole hearted welcome in PHED can strengthen
integrated efforts between two wings of the department so that both join hands together
towards one sole objective; failing to that may result in deteriorating CDU performance and
emergence of sense of inferiority among CDU members.
 Due to not having defined and well versed document of TORs to each individual serving
PHED at district level; an unseen issue emerges as in most of the districts sub-engineers
are entrusted the assignments that are supposed to be performed by the surveyor. This
also creates an unbounded burden to one cadre leaving the other cadre from performance
management; that also leads to some un-wanted rift between the individuals not being fully
conversant to each others TORs.
 The Community Development unit is more focused leaving Technical staff members at
second place in regard to capacity building activities. In almost every training session, there
has been demand from the technical unit to design and conduct a training program
specifically focused on SDOs and Sub Engineers. They wish to be engaged in training on
design of project scheme (very much relevant to their core work assignments), use of
AUTO CAD tool, LOOP program, etc. As seen, JrOs provided comprehensive trainings and
Community Development theme is focused (very much relevant to CDU) in this training
workshop; translates a message and emerges a need of training program for SDOs and
Sub-Engineers seemed to demand.
 One of the Executive Engineer was of the view that why community participation is
emphasized as for as rural development is concerned. This approach is not adopted in
urban development projects. If this approach is very effective; why it is not adopted in rural
development schemes of water and sanitation services to the people. First, apply to the
urban development then replicate the concept to rural development. The people living in
urban sector are more educated and supposed to be more effective to run the schemes on
sustainable basis. They are supposed to have more capacity in maintaining the schemes
effectively. Such so called discriminated approach in policy decision is required to be
changed.
 PHED staff seemed complaining that funds are not released well in time; for the reason
deliverables can not meet to its realistic interpretation.
 Vehicles are not provided and because of this issue PHED staff is of the view, particularly
CDU, have been unable to deliver the assignments effectively and efficiently. Unanimously,
it has been demand for provision of vehicles to staff in performance of work coherently.
 Due to insufficient time provided under contingencies directives where in PHED is
supposed to submit the proposal by a day or so; can not deliver the results. Such proposal
without sound interaction and survey conducted in haste; obviously can not develop
interaction with the community and result is obvious; i.e. the scheme flopped.

It reveals that before training, in 08 sessions, 27 responses on LOW level of learning; turned to upper
level. It means that 135 upto Medium level of learning converted to High & b/w Medium and High raising
figure to upto 195 at higher degree of learning after the training.
Further such analysis reflects that:
i. 33% of the participants estimating their knowledge and skills between the level of Low and Medium
before training; reduced to 32% after training.
ii. 40% achieved the level of competency between Medium and High; raised from 26% before training.
iii. It is significant that 54% rated their knowledge as High after training. This figure jumped from 09%
covering the difference of 45% whereas post-test result shows 42% correct responses in

i. 11% of the participants estimating their knowledge and skills between the level of Low and Medium
before training; enhanced their knowledge vide which all converted to next higher category of
learning; by leaving nothing between low and medium after training.
ii. 41% achieved the level of competency between Medium and High; raised from 14%
iii. It is significant that 48% rated their knowledge as High after training. This figure jumped from 11%
leaving the difference as 39% whereas post-test analysis suggest the overall learning after training
ranges to 49%.

  • 7. Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 1.Background & Introduction 7 1. Background & Introduction The Punjab Devolved Social Services Program seeks to achieve progress with the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) related to poverty, gender, education, health, and water supply and sanitation (WSS). The Program’s objective is to strengthen devolved social services for a more equitable, efficient, effective, and sustainable delivery of social services. The Program is built around three principal policy outcomes: (i) realigning intergovernmental relations to support devolved social services; (ii) rationalizing and setting minimum standards for social services; and (iii) strengthening the public accountability mechanisms and promoting public-private partnership. The Program covers all 36 district governments and 34 program Tehsil (town) municipal administrations (TMAs). The Community Development Unit (CDU) of the Public Health Engineering Department (PHED) has assumed the important role of promoting community participation in design, implementation and operation & maintenance of water supply schemes. The recently established CDU is staffed with one Community Development Officer (CDO) and six Community Based Motivators (CBMs) in each district of the Punjab Province. Additionally there are around 3611 Water Supply and Sanitation Community Organisations (WASCOs) running water supply schemes installed by PHED. The PHED has identified the need for technical assistance (TA) to strengthen its Community Development Unit for improved rural water management and sanitation services at community level. Additionally the department wants to build the capacity of both its engineering section on effective involvement of communities in design, implementation and operation & maintenance of water supply schemes. As we have observed, most of the development work carried out results into wastage of tax generated resources. Same is the case with water supply and sanitation schemes as well. The main reason has been seen as non-involvement of end beneficiaries - the community people for whom the schemes is actually implemented; are not taken into account at any stage of the project cycle. Hence the result is obvious. The community dame cares of such high cost projects that can not benefit as per their requirements. On one side, where the competent officials feel that they can do sound decisions and know better which of the service is crucial to the public; gets reaction of the public being irrelevant to all such matter. There is no sense of ownership prevails in the community; and at the end such development schemes remain unsustainable. Therefore, such training program is evolved in order to strengthen the capacity of CBMs on board in CDU as well as PHED technical personnel decision making process in lines with taking community desire and wants into account. This is a sound initiative basically to get the behaviour change towards community mobilization so that they feel the ownership in the project to sustain in the long run. Therefore, capacity building program is designed to have CDU and PHED technical staff sits together in a training workshop to equip them with handy skills to work on the water schemes more effectively. PHED in south Punjab region, comprising to 09 districts entrusted to the team of four members: Zafar Ahmad (TL) with Social Scientist Zubair Ahmad, having support from Ehsan Nadir and Ali Adnan Aman as logistics Assistant(s) to conduct training session in the above region.

The training agenda was discussed and hard copy provided to each participants; that developed a sketch on what to do during the course of the training days. The participants were invited their expectations about the training; and then linked to the devised training objectives. It was found good that participants’ expectation almost 100% matched with the training objectives except for expectations from some technical staff interested to learn how to use the technical equipment and design of water supply scheme. Pre-Test to assess the learning before training is conducted to come up with the understanding of participants on the concepts supposed to be discussed in the training outline. It was welcomed by the participants without showing annoyance on pre-examining the participants’ capabilities. This activity helped in devising the strategy to unfold the training content as per level of understanding of the participants.

The participant emphasized the purpose of adopting PHED vision in their routine assignment. Such support encourage the team; and keep such statements: PHED vision and goal all the time in mind would lead to develop integrated efforts between the technical and community development staff towards on main objective of delivery of assignments with effective participation of community with the dream to meet dream of sustainable project. The participants came to know that dissemination of PHED vision in the community would give them feel that PHED personal is with the community and they are here to exert self-less efforts in supreme interest of one cause – “Yeh Ghar to Aakhir Apna hiey”. The session wrapped with the emphasis on pursuance of Millennium Development Goal # 07 that places obligations to PHED personal to provide optimum quality and acceptable quality of water on sustainable basis, at least to half of the needy and deserving communities deprived from clean and safe drinking water. Here as under some extract on the day end participants’ comments regarding session on “Vision’; that clearly portrayed the extent of eagerness, enthusiasm and commitment to include and get support from vision statement in performance of work.  Concept on PHED Vision was explained and understood.  Integrated efforts between PHED Technical and CDU staff can be ensured by imitating the philosophy of PHED vision.  Learnt techniques to use vision statement during the course of work and interaction with the community  Learnt skill how to use vision statement and exploit community to achieve their effective participation during the course of work  Idiomatic discussion on vision enjoyed a lot.  Learnt to covert PHED vision into practical application during discharge of responsibilities.  Majority of the participants in 09 districts, shared that first time, they came to know about Vision and goal of PHED  This session developed a sense of responsibility as “we should work hard as much as possible in the interest of department”.
  • 11. Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 11  Such session sensitized and provided self-motivation to exert high level of efforts to use the tool of vision in getting work done effectively and efficiently  Such learning in the session, provided us a tool in using to get community confidence in order to make them agree towards fulfill of objectives (comments from CBMs) Session 2.1 Community Participation This session is the core session with respect to the title of the workshop. Session commenced with brainstorming on definition of “Community” and participants view point is taken on board. With different like minded view point preferably taken from PHED Technical staff; concluded with the people living in a territorial jurisdiction having interest in sharing and production of financial and social resources – termed as community. Then discussion leaded to the difference in stakeholder and influential entities; and discussed converted into debate that an influential may not be a stakeholder but reverse may be true. Different stakeholder (beneficiary) in the community were discussed and emphasized that such deprived and normally ignored persons, persons living with disability should be engaged in participatory development. The structure of participatory development was discussed. The stages of social mobilization: sensitization, realization, conceptualization, organization (motivation, implementation, monitoring). The participants shared that mobilization is stated with the philosophy to change the behaviour towards social development. It is a process in which people are made enable to discuss their problems, make plans to solve them, utilize their existing resources, solve them and sustain it. The good qualities of a CBM were taken on the floor. The participants spoke in recognizing with the sense to desire of having such attributes in each of personality involved in community mobilization. The session ended with the focus on participatory development and using tools of mobilization and community effective participation towards sustainable project. Session 2.2 Role & Responsibilities In this session, Role and Responsibilities relating to the job assignments of every participant are discussed; with the session objective as fully conversant of job assignments really turn to effective deliverables. The participants were invited to come up with their view point as they understand about the terms: TORs, Job Description and Job Specifications. Almost in every training sessions, some interesting meaning to these terms came resulting to that there is dire need of applications under sound HR practices. All participants were divided into groups by designation and asked to write down the tasks they perform in lines from identification to handing over of waster supply scheme. After group work, participants came on floor through a group leader and presented the tasks they perform. At length Q/A were taken after each presentation. Most of the participants told as being first time they came to know the task their colleagues perform.
  • 12. Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 12 The participants stressed that a comprehensive written TOR document must be provided to each employee so that every one must be conversant not only to his/her job responsibilities but with others job description as well. It was observed that if such application tool is applied in letter and spirit would leave healthy influence in exercise of applying integrated efforts between CDU and PHED Technical Staff. Some extract from the feedback of participants on the session is taken here as under; the participants speak as:-  Learnt the concept and importance of having documented TORs  First time, it happed to have debate on developing the understanding on TORs  Written TORs document must be provided to each cadre of employee working in PHED at District level. Having gone through the contents of training session on Role and Responsibilities; it translates that understanding with oneself own TORs as well as with TORs of other colleagues would provide trust, strengthen integrated efforts to create coordinated efforts to perform the assignments effectively.  It was learnt that first “plan the work then work the plan” Session 2.3 W&SS Activities and Project Cycle Management The session started with the description on learning outcome that participants would be able to the application of new development ideas in planning process and to make sure community participation in the planning process of the scheme. The participants welcomed the brainstorming and take part in developing consensus of project cycle phases and indentify the phases/stages of PCM. In the plannery, it was discussed that each phase: identification of the scheme, designing of the scheme, implementation and monitoring; the skill that are required to be used. The participants shared that in these activities community capacity building is required in order to get effective in put in design of the water supply of scheme. PHED personnel have the responsibility to discuss merits and de-merit of the proposal and come up with the recommendations that the kind of plan would be beneficial and acceptable for the community. Such community involvement would enhance their confidence and lead towards ownership. A prominent activity during the course of implementation and monitoring; community may be well versed with their role and responsibility. This would exercise healthy influence and get willingness to exert high level of efforts from the community. In second part of the session, participants were involved in a group work providing lists of activities (listed at random) require to be performed from identification of the scheme to handing over to the community; and the participants were asked to list down number of activities in order with reference to the phases of PCM. The participants were also requested to write down the designation who is supposed to perform that specific activity. The participants enjoyed the activity and refresh their understanding on actually who is responsible in performing the activity in focus. This enhanced their learning as well as feel of sense of responsibility to perform.
  • 13. Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 13 Session 3.1 Communication Skills After completing core work-related sessions, before to conclude as per training plan; all the time important session on communication skills was conducted by the Social Scientist. Session commenced with the ice-breaking activity. Most renowned activity named as “Chine’s Whisper” was initiated to get the participants realized how communications changes the original context when carried from person to person. The activity ended with the explanation of communication model; but participants showed some concerns that the model has been silent about “feedback” component – an integral ingredient to make communication effective. Some arguments were exchanged on the point of contention; but trainer did not agree even on “receiver’s response can be treated as feedback” as claimed by the participants. The discussion left by linking the demonstrated model of communication with the “JO-HARI Window” – the most appropriate tool helpful for “SELF” analysis. The four parts of SELF window: Open, Hidden, Blind and Dark; were keenly observed, shared, understood and learning enjoyed by the participants. The activity lasted with the lesson learned: that in normal course of life, we just concentrate of apparent things in making our judgments in communication and in other spheres as well. We can come up with sound decisions by concentrating the things very minutely. However, the participants enjoyed it. Then session came live with explanation of definition on communication directing the discussion to tools of communication. Slideshow explained; but at the point of “ownership of the problem – let the problem be handled to which it pertains” developed contention as the social scientist insisted that there should be no ‘arbitrary” all the way to settle the issues among the persons to which matter pertains; where as participants were of the view that “arbitration” process cannot be ruled out to address the problem and be useful at the discretion of the owner(s) of the problem. The communication problem can be strengthened to empower people through dialogue at their own in order to develop effective communication. However, session proceeded with the slideshow on “I” statements covering that listening blocks, stroking, reflecting listening, observation, etc. Session wrapped up with the observation of the participants, “as we say communication is a two way process; feedback an essential component be included in the model presented in the session.” For example, in telephonic conversation; feedback is obvious. Session lasted with the delivery of printed stuff on “Four stages of awareness” to participants. - From evaluation, it is revealed that 95% of the participants think that topic is most relevant to their work. - Most of the participants considered the session important to their assignments and enjoyed the session at large. - The participants considered that application of effective communication skills can make delivery of their job assignments in a coherent way. - Some of the participants raised observations that delivery of the session has not been in adequate manner. Session 3.2 Team Work Another session relevant to personality and career development and to strengthen the participation skills to communicate effectively with the community and to maintain sound working relationships among the PHED team members (both CDU and Technical staff) was included in the training agenda with the topic: Team work covering the sub-ingredients of team
  • 14. Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 3.Session Notes 14 strengths and limitations, individual role in the team, creating positive team culture, characteristics of effective team, using strengths and team phases & team roles. For the purpose, the session initiated with an activity “Completing Broken Squares” by dividing participants into group of 5 persons rest of them taken as observer. The group work lasted at elapse of 10 minutes or before any of all team members completed the task. At the end the observers were asked to come up with their observations on following prominent questions:-  Who was ready to give his/her pieces to other participants, after completing his/her own square?  Who remained isolated after completing his/her square?  Who gave up the efforts and remained despair?  When the team started to cooperate? After the stipulated period of time, participants assembled in the session with all requirements made available on the floor. The Resource person highlighted the attributes that team work efforts are more fruitful as compared to doing by an individual with lack of coordination. The key learning through this activity were linked to the definition of the team providing the concept of people working altogether under one specific purpose. Individual learn from each other and complex projects have better chances to get completed with the collective efforts of entrusted team; provides greater strengths. Also, team has to face challenges of dilution of responsibility, distribution of credit and Ego of conflicting personalities. Through a slideshow participants were informed about the role(s) in forming, storming, performing and norming of team stages. In order to make the session interactive, participants were invited to share the expression as they might have been first time in the community. In responses to the participants’ views; discussion focused on the obligations need to comply with and overcome the deficiencies: shyness, un-bounded influenced. Then an energizer/joke was shared in order to make session live followed by the guidelines to deliver presentation in an effective way. At the point of capturing the audience; the participants shared that there is difference between capturing and drawing attention of the audience. Session feedback states that:- - Participants appreciated the session for learning as in the entire length of service they have been ignorant about such techniques. They had been busy as being remained in their office room most of the time and could not spare some time to think about it. - As per written comments, most of the participants enjoyed learning in the session as being first time encountered with presentation techniques. - Mostly, participants remarked as “learned how to organize work in team for achieving object The session ended in plannery sharing that “coming together is beginning, keeping together is progress and working together is success”.

  • 22. Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 9. Conclusions 22 9. Conclusions  As PHED Technical staff is engaged in somehow behaviour change approached based training workshop getting their extended coordination for joining hands with CDU for effective delivery of assignments. As training objectives were made conversant with the participant during the introduction session; apparently, it depicted from the gestures of the participants i.e. from PHED Technical Staff that “there is nothing for them regarding their core work assignments like developing a proposal scheme, use of sophisticated tools, survey techniques, developing maps and reports etc”. Somewhat they felt as have nothing as for as engineers and SDOs are concerned. If such manual is strengthened with at least technical session related to the core work assignments of engineering staff; it would have been much more beneficial and even to strengthen the integrated efforts between technical and CDU staff as well.  Most of participants seemed complaining about their pay structure. It is not performance based. Therefore the personnel deliver with utmost commitment remain with same benefits, enjoy the same motivational applications as of personnel who deliver in usually manner.  In the last quarter i.e. April – June of financial year, most of the public sector organizations are busy in closing their deliverables. Same has been experienced while conducting workshops in the last quarter for PHED. This has been the main reason for drop out/left-over participants. Therefore, in future trainings for PHED personnel should be planned preferably in first quarter of the financial year.  While conduct of training sessions in south Punjab districts; it is experienced that fresh blood inducted in PHED in terms of establishing CDU and considerable human resource on technical side; is seemed to be committed in delivery of services. In spite that majority of PHED staff members specifically were unaware of PHED vision and stated goal before conduct of training but they looked committed and dedicated to deliver regardless what the pay structure is applied to them. More than 80% of the human resource were required training as since their appointment have been unable to grab the opportunity of having training sessions. This training program proved as a blessing for them.  As suggested by the participants, we also include that training program very much relevant to the core assignments of technical staff be focused while planning of capacity building program in future.
  • 23. Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 10.Recommendations 23 10. Recommendations In pursuance of 09 training sessions, as per feedback from the participants, following recommendations are summarized giving priority to participants view point:-  In such training workshops community people should also be invited in this training workshop so that effective interaction and solutions be generated on the schemes which are not owned by the community and seen in large number as un-sustainable. This move may turn to get non-functional schemes into functional and sustainable.  In such training workshops TA/DA (Delegate Allowance) should be given to the participants, ir-respect of trainings falling on Saturday.  Training Manual should be comprehensive as of training manual developed for JROs technical training.  For Technical staff, separate training must be arranged. Trainings on imparting technical knowledge skills like use of instrument like AUTO CAD for mapping, tools for surveying and leveling, design of water supply program “LOOP”; should be conducted.  Such Training programs should be on continues bases.  In next training program, all CBMs should be engaged in a separate program; as in presence of their High Ups, CBMs may not confidently participate.  An exposure visit to a scheme must be arranged as part of such training program  Theoretical training content should be supported with more “problematic information” experienced in the field.  In future, training session should not be conducted in the month of May & June; as workload is increased in these months and due to financial year end closing, participants may not spare precious time and pay due attention in training sessions.  Training session daily duration should be from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.; however number of days in a training program may be increased.  Community participation can be taken effectively and water supply scheme may be owned by the community in case bill tariff applied to the scheme is taken as “tariff applicable to agricultural side” instead of imposing commercial tariff to run the scheme. Such policy decision would provide leverage to the community and nice cushion in regard to settle monthly bill payment by them.  Planning really matters. Every management cadre is unanimously agreed that a well planned scheme can turn better results. Participants suggested and requesting to the High Ups that announce the schemes (suppose to be implemented in a year) in initial quarter of working year and let CDU and PHED technical staff sufficient and necessary time to work on with interaction of community and then expect the deliverables otherwise the objective of CDU would go without fruitful results.
  • 24. Training Workshop for PHED and CDU Staff | 11.Emerging Issues 24 11. Emerging Issues  Going through 09 districts in south Punjab region, and having formal as well as informal interaction with the participants comprising of CDU and PHED technical staff; it is apparently seen and in some session; CDU has been somewhat demanding to strengthen coordination skills require to be extended by the PHED technical staff members, in order to generate sense of ownership of CDU in PHED. Community Development Unit somehow showed grievances of being not taken on equally basis into account by PHED technical staff. As being newly inception unit, CDU whole hearted welcome in PHED can strengthen integrated efforts between two wings of the department so that both join hands together towards one sole objective; failing to that may result in deteriorating CDU performance and emergence of sense of inferiority among CDU members.  Due to not having defined and well versed document of TORs to each individual serving PHED at district level; an unseen issue emerges as in most of the districts sub-engineers are entrusted the assignments that are supposed to be performed by the surveyor. This also creates an unbounded burden to one cadre leaving the other cadre from performance management; that also leads to some un-wanted rift between the individuals not being fully conversant to each others TORs.  The Community Development unit is more focused leaving Technical staff members at second place in regard to capacity building activities. In almost every training session, there has been demand from the technical unit to design and conduct a training program specifically focused on SDOs and Sub Engineers. They wish to be engaged in training on design of project scheme (very much relevant to their core work assignments), use of AUTO CAD tool, LOOP program, etc. As seen, JrOs provided comprehensive trainings and Community Development theme is focused (very much relevant to CDU) in this training workshop; translates a message and emerges a need of training program for SDOs and Sub-Engineers seemed to demand.  One of the Executive Engineer was of the view that why community participation is emphasized as for as rural development is concerned. This approach is not adopted in urban development projects. If this approach is very effective; why it is not adopted in rural development schemes of water and sanitation services to the people. First, apply to the urban development then replicate the concept to rural development. The people living in urban sector are more educated and supposed to be more effective to run the schemes on sustainable basis. They are supposed to have more capacity in maintaining the schemes effectively. Such so called discriminated approach in policy decision is required to be changed.  PHED staff seemed complaining that funds are not released well in time; for the reason deliverables can not meet to its realistic interpretation.  Vehicles are not provided and because of this issue PHED staff is of the view, particularly CDU, have been unable to deliver the assignments effectively and efficiently. Unanimously, it has been demand for provision of vehicles to staff in performance of work coherently.  Due to insufficient time provided under contingencies directives where in PHED is supposed to submit the proposal by a day or so; can not deliver the results. Such proposal without sound interaction and survey conducted in haste; obviously can not develop interaction with the community and result is obvious; i.e. the scheme flopped.
