- lessons_learned:
- description:
- The Lesson Learned is that the project structure with four components leads to stand-alone sub-projects and loss of oversight in the B-SEP Project funded by Global Affairs Canada (GAC). The staff within each component are pre-occupied with their own activities and lose sight of possible exchange and/or cooperation with other components.
- context:
- The four components of the B-SEP project are:
1) Skills Funding, Planning and Support Services;
2) Competency Based Training & Assessment (CBTA) Quality & Relevance;
3) Industry Skills Development; and
4) Improved Access to Skills for women and disadvantaged groups.
- success:
- The clarity of having four different components envisioned initially was offset by the challenges mentioned in the previous box.
- challenges:
- Negative lessons are the lack of coordination when planning component-wise activities, the impossibility of (quickly) shifting budget from one component to the other once apparent that certain budget items are cancelled or substantially delayed, and the relatively large diversity of activities undertaken resulting in no less than 16 sub-components.
- administrative_issues:
- The decision to have four components is especially negotiated between the ILO Country Office, the GAC and the key national stakeholders, but ILO PARDEV and the ILO regional offices in Delhi and Bangkok can also play a role here.
- comments:
- ILO Country Office in Dhaka, ILO DWT/New Delhi, ROAP/Bangkok, HQ Geneva, GAC and key national stakeholders.
