As an effort to support the development of human resources for Forest Management Unit (FMU) development, the Center of Forestry Education and Training (CFET) in collaboration with GIZ FORCLIME organized a workshop on Training Needs Assessment (TNA) in Bogor. The training workshop was conducted in early October 2013 and attended by 26 lecturers representing the Forestry Training Center, Forestry Training Centre (BDK) of Bogor, BDK Kadipaten, and BDK Samarinda.

Through increasing the knowledge and skills about TNA, the workshop aimed at contributing to the development of human resources for FMUs in Indonesia. In addition to inputs related to TNA, the workshop also discussed the organizational structure of FMUs (including case studies on FMUs in Kapuas Hulu in West Kalimantan and the FMU of West Berau in East Kalimantan), as well as competency analyses for human resources for FMUs.

The Head of CFET was represented by the Head of the Development Unit for Education and Training, who expressed his appreciation about the ongoing cooperation between CFET and GIZ FORCLIME during the closing ceremony. Additionally, he also expected that the activity will complement the implementation of Competence Based Learning (CBL) at the forestry education and training centers.

Furthermore, the cooperation supports the forestry education and training centers in developing their contribution to FMU development.For further information, please contact:
