Descripción del programa
This five-day professional training programme provides public officials with actionable methodologies to improve secondary education retention for adolescent girls. Participants examine systemic bottlenecks that impede female completion rates, focusing on institutional remedies, transparent financial support schemes, and safe learning spaces. The course demonstrates how to align cross-sectoral interventions with international development bank benchmarks, ensuring education ministries and project implementation units build robust frameworks that keep vulnerable female learners enrolled through senior secondary completion.
Delegates will analyse the operational mechanics of targeted scholarship systems, conditional cash transfers, and poverty-targeted bursaries. Instruction covers verification protocols, payment reconciliation, and female student tracking architectures designed to minimise fund leakage and prevent dropouts. Through case studies and structured policy exercises, attendees explore practical methods for integrating safe school infrastructure, gender-responsive teaching practices, and school-based health initiatives directly into broader state-level basic and secondary education investment plans.
Delivered in London, the course equips administrators with practical oversight tools to coordinate school-based management committees, community leaders, and local education authorities. Participants learn how to establish grievance redress mechanisms, monitor attendance indicators through digital dashboards, and enforce environmental and social standards. By completing this programme, officials acquire the strategic competencies needed to design, implement, and audit large-scale female education interventions financed through sovereign borrowing or external development assistance.
Sub-Saharan Africa, and Nigeria in particular, faces acute pressure to address the structural barriers preventing adolescent girls from transitioning to and completing secondary school. With major multilateral funding envelopes active, such as the US$700m Additional Financing for the Adolescent Girls Initiative for Learning and Empowerment (AGILE), implementing agencies must rapidly strengthen their operational capacity. Public bodies require robust, leak-proof scholarship delivery models, functional attendance verification mechanisms, and verifiable child protection procedures to deliver on project development objectives and meet rigorous international fiduciary standards.
Delivered by Risalat Consultants International in London, United Kingdom, it combines expert-led sessions, real cases and group work, so that participants can apply what they learn in their own institution.
The Programme Strengthens Institutional Capability
- Socio-economic, cultural, and institutional drivers of female learner dropout in secondary education
- Comparative analysis of merit-based versus equity-focused targeted scholarship systems
- Eligibility mapping: Proxy Means Testing (PMT) and geographical poverty targeting methods
- Establishing baseline enrolment and transition metrics for female secondary students
- Aligning scholarship criteria with World Bank Environmental and Social Framework (ESF) requirements
- Designing conditionality rules: attendance thresholds, academic progression, and life skills participation
- Digital payment channels, mobile money solutions, and agent networks for reaching rural households
- Fiduciary risk mitigation, financial reconciliation, and preventing fraud in stipend disbursements
- Planificación y gestión de servicios
- Mejora de la calidad y normas
- Recursos humanos y planificación de la fuerza laboral
- Financiación y presupuestación de los servicios
It is designed for directors of secondary education from state ministries of education, executive secretaries and managers of state scholarship boards, project coordinators from donor-funded education implementation units and others who want practical, current skills in health, education and social services.
