About the Portal

 

 

The Agriculture Training Portal provides agricultural specialists and development agents with resources to support their work to improve agricultural productivity among women and men farmers in Ethiopia.

The resources on this portal have been developed as part of the Capacity Development Support Facility (CDSF) Project – a bilateral Global Affairs Canada and Government of Ethiopia initiative.

The Agriculture Training Portal provides users with access to an extensive library of training materials, tools, templates, videos and e-learning courses produced by CDSF over the course of the Project. These resources aim to support agricultural specialists, extension staff, veterinarians and decision-makers in the agricultural sector as they work to scale-up agricultural production in Ethiopia.

How do I use the Agriculture Training Portal?

 

The Agriculture  Training Portal provides a collection of searchable tools, guidance documents, templates and other learning materials to support capacity development specialists in designing, delivering and evaluating training activities in the agricultural sector.
