Essential Learning

RURAL DEVELOPMENT is the process of improving the quality of life and

economic well-being of people living in rural areas, often relatively isolated and
sparsely populated areas.
This will include farm-to-market roads, bridges, tire tracks, communal
irrigation, potable water systems, post-harvest facilities, production facilities, fish
landings, fish sanctuaries, storage facilities, trading posts, green houses, solar
driers, and slope stabilization works.

RURAL AREA where the people are engaged in primary industry in the
sense that they produce things directly for the first time in cooperation with
nature. Rural areas are separately settled places away from the influence of
large cities and towns. Such areas are distinct from more intensively settled
urban and sub-urban areas, and also from unsettled lands or wilderness, such as
forest. Rural areas can have an agricultural character, though many rural areas
are characterized by an economy based on cottage industry, mining, oil and gas
exploration, or tourism.
RURAL COMMUNITY is group of people with a common characteristic or
interest living together, in a village. A rural Community can be classified as rural
based on the criteria of lower population density, less social differentiation, less
social and spatial mobility, slow rate of social change, etc. Agriculture is the major
occupation of rural people.

LIFE OF RURAL PEOPLE

Lifestyles in rural areas are different than those in urban areas, mainly
because limited services are available. Governmental services like law
enforcement, schools, fire departments, and libraries may be distant, limited in
scope, or unavailable. Utilities like water, sewer, street lighting, and garbage
collection may not be present. Public transport is sometimes absent or very
limited; people use their own vehicles, walk or ride an animal.
RURAL DEVELOPMENT
Rural development is a strategy designed to improve the economic and
social life of rural poor. It is a process, which aims at improving the well-being
and self- realization of people living outside the urbanized areas through
collective process. Rural Development is all about bringing change among rural
community from the rational way of living to progressive way of living. It is also
express as a movement for progress.
OBJECTIVES OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT

Training Skills?

______– Education in Community Development Page 15

Module 1: Project Proposal and Schedule of Activities, Areas of Concerns in Educating a
Community

Essential Learning

Occupational Skills Training (OST) is an effective, economical

program that can help you prepare for successful employment.
Setting realistic goals and learning new skills can go a long way
toward building a bright future, especially for people who are out of
work due to job displacement, injury, disability or other circumstances.

This  program provides the opportunity for students to receive hands-

on training in a specific occupational area. This program is designed for
students who need or prefer work-based training to develop their skills. It is an
organized program of study that provides specific vocational skills that lead to
proficiency in performing actual tasks and technical functions required by certain
occupational fields at entry, intermediate, or advanced levels. 

Occupational Skills Training provides Clients with the knowledge and

skills necessary to obtain employment in a given occupation. It is provided
for skills that are in-demand in the local labour market and suitable to
address the Client’s employment related needs. It is an effective, economical
program that can help you prepare for successful employment. Setting realistic
goals and learning new skills can go a long way toward building a bright future,
especially for people who are out of work due to job displacement, injury,
disability or other circumstances.

A variety of occupational areas may be appropriate for the OST program.

Here in the Philippines, Technical Education and Skills Development
Authority (TESDA) (Filipino: Pangasiwaan sa Edukasyong Teknikal at
Pagpapaunlad ng Kasanayan) serves as the Philippines’ Technical Vocational
Education and Training (TVET) authority. As a government agency, TESDA is
tasked to both manage and supervise the Philippines’ Technical Education and
Skills Development (TESD). Its goals are to develop the Filipino workforce with
“world-class competence and positive work values” and to provide quality
technical-educational and skills development through its direction, policies, and
programs.

CHARACTERISTICS OF OCCUPATIONAL SKILLS TRAINING:

• is outcome-oriented and focused on an occupational goal specified in the
individual service strategy ;
• is of sufficient duration to impart the skills needed to meet the occupational
goal;

______– Education in Community Development Page 16

Module 1: Project Proposal and Schedule of Activities, Areas of Concerns in Educating a
Community

BENEFITS OF OCCUPATIONAL SKILLS TRAINING

 Gain work experience and references
 Training targets skills needed for employment in nearly every industry
 Learn job skills on a work site rather than in a classroom setting
 Flexible and individualized approach to training
 Earn college credits and achieve a Certificate of Completion by
successfully completing program requirements
 Acquire skills for entry level employment – stated outcome
 Add experience to academic training
 Update existing skills
 Access to alternative occupations not available in the college

In planning or proposing Training for Occupational Skills, we can consider

this Vocational Skills Project Proposal.

Vocational Skills Project Proposal

Need for the project
Bulambuli is a deprived rural area of eastern Uganda. Some 80% of its
population (total around 150,000) are subsistence farmers who live beneath the
poverty line. We have identified that there is a need to address School Drop-
Outs, and Unemployed Youths living within the villages of Bulambuli District, with
a

Vocational Training Scheme.

The programme plans to enhance the employability of 100 recent school
drop-outs (aged 16-22) and unemployed youths (22-30) – both male and female,
within the first one year period.

Why funds are needed

• There are high rates of unemployment within Bulambuli among people aged 24-
35.
• Average Learning Achievement of the students is not satisfied. There is
rampant school dropout among school going children and many students fail to
obtain the necessary results to continue with further study – therefore these
students should not be left to ‘fail’.
• AVS is aware that there are several formally accredited Vocational Training
Institutions however those who AVS support may be unable to attend due to

______– Education in Community Development Page 17

Module 1: Project Proposal and Schedule of Activities, Areas of Concerns in Educating a
Community

financial constraints, lacking papers and issues of transportation and

accommodation.
• Careers support and advice is severely lacking in schools, students are often
not aware of vocational learning opportunities and believe that if they have failed
to succeed in the education system they have fewer options for employment.
• School drop-outs and youths lose hope and end up loitering, becoming
irresponsible in the community and often find themselves engaging themselves in
misconduct of all kinds like alcohol & drug addictions, gambling, prostitution,
robbery among others – therefore enabling them to acquire a skill to support
themselves we hope will prevent this.

Objectives of the Project

1. To provide vocational training to unemployed youths and recent school-

dropouts to enhance employability and provide a skilled foundation to build a
career – therefore reducing levels of unemployment in those aged 21-30.

2. To empower young people to believe in their dreams and to enable the

acquisition of income (through formal and informal job prospects) so that they
can support their household and families. 3. Foster a change in community
attitudes whereby everybody is given the opportunity to succeed.

How funds will be used

Pilot Programme Initially the programme will be piloted from March 2018 with
8-12 attendees from 7 villages enrolled on a Tailoring programme - delivered by
a local tailor Mon-Fri for two months. During this period, a teaching
programme/course will be developed, feedback sought from attendees, and a
comprehensive budget developed to support the development of the programme
to enable effective roll-out.
Proposed Programme for Roll-out May 2018 An initial one year period is
thought to be realistic and it is assumed that following the Pilot Programme, the
full programme and supplementary budget will be in place to continue with each
project from May 2018 onwards for 1 year.

Proposed Vocational Training Courses

The following courses have been proposed and would be targeted at recent
school drop-outs and youths – except for Computer Literacy which could also be
attended by professionals (public servants);
• Tailoring
• Hair Dressing and Beauty
• Catering
• Computer Literacy
• Carpentry and Joinery
• Brick laying and Construction
• Plumbing

______– Education in Community Development Page 18

Module 1: Project Proposal and Schedule of Activities, Areas of Concerns in Educating a
Community

• Electrical Wiring and Fittings

Management of the Programme

• Identify the formally accredited Vocational Training Institutions that AVS can
work with and agree the programme.
• Build course structure; Duration, Tuition, Associated Costs – Both to
Beneficiary and to AVS, Course Syllabus’, Criteria for Completion and Attaining
Certificate
• Identify 100 young people distributed fairly between school drop-outs and
unemployed youths.
• Plan the budget.
• Help the students to purchase recommended materials and equipment for the
course.
• In-house training at the AVS Community Centre by the hired tutors.
• Monitor and photograph the students, capturing the new skills and evaluate the
success of the project ready to develop and extend for the future.

Expected Outcomes of the Programme

• Within the 1st year (May-May), 100 young people distributed fairly between
school drop-outs and unemployed youths will participate in an AVS Vocational
Training Programme – with the initial goal of 50% of beneficiaries to be engaged
within income-generating activities formally or informally following receipt of
training.
• Beneficiaries will become self-reliant and strongly resilient in addressing their
challenges through newly acquired skills and learning.
• Beneficiaries will be able to use the acquired skills to enhance their careers and
employment prospects.
• Beneficiaries will be able to use course completion certifications provided by
AVS to add value to their curriculum vitae and enable wider career opportunities.

Budget required for the pilot project:

Budget required for one year programme:
