Program Overview This is a segmental course consisting of three online self-paced modules aimed at developing basic theoretical knowledge of information management and coordination fundamentals. Upon completion of the course, the participants will strengthen their basic information management competencies in folder, file and education cluster contact list management, education cluster monitoring tool and analysis and visualization. Context Overview The Information management capacity development is an initiative designed to support national education information management staff to develop competencies to effectively support the coordination and implementation of quality EiE Interventions. Blending theory with practice, the course will help participants understand the fundamentals of information management in education in an emergency (EIE) and cluster coordination and develop competencies to become a more effective Information managers. The program aims to equip all National Information management officers with the required knowledge, skills, and attitudes to effectively deliver an evidence base, coordinated and harmonized EIE response (GEC, 2018). This training was designed following a mapping exercise that provided knowledge gaps in information management and coordination, limiting the capacity of staff to deliver coordinated and quality EiE responses in the emergency-affected countries. Whereas this training is drawn from a six-modular programme, this phase will only focus on the three-information management related modules.

The modules are based on the elements in the centre of the Humanitarian Programme Cycle (HPC) diagram (Humanitarian Architecture, context and nexus, accountability, partnership, Coordination, and information) with a focus on key 1) theoretical knowledge, 2) practical skills and 3) the sector’s foundational tool, the INEE Minimum Standards, that all information management officers working in humanitarian settings should know, regardless of context and particular role within the coordination structure. This content is delivered predominately through online eLearning, with assigned readings, video tutorials, webinars, and practical exercises (GEC, GEC Training Package_Conceptual Framework_Core 1 and 2, 2018)

Programme Evaluation Criteria Each module will have a quiz and assignment for the participants to complete. There is a minimum mark the participant will be required to attain in order to pass the module. The assignments will be scored, and feedback provided to the participants. The participants will be required to complete all quizzes and assignments in each module before they can proceed to the next.
