Most PRIME II Technical Reports detail specific reproductive health care interventions, describing the context, methodology and results of a PRIME project and recommendations from its evaluation. Other reports focus on findings from needs assessments conducted prior to a training intervention or document follow-up studies that ascertain how well health care providers have retained the knowledge and skills they acquired during training. Research studies testing new approaches to service delivery were sometimes published as PRIME technical reports, often with implications for health care policies in particular countries.

Capacity Building in Training: A Framework and Tool for Measuring Progress (November 2000) (324KB)

One of the goals of the PRIME Project is to train and support primary providers of reproductive health care through capacity building. In order to assist project managers and host-country staff with assessments of institutional capacity for training, a new evaluation tool was designed and then tested in several countries. Results of that work in El Salvador are presented in this report.
