evaluation and reporting of the training Courses. The Service Provider is required by
Contract to adhere to the guidelines of The Information Pack.
10.

Course Materials

The Service Provider will provide all necessary course materials, including but not
limited to:

Curriculum Outline: Using the background information and training


objectives above, Tenderers are to design a detailed curriculum outline
drawing on their own specialised knowledge for submission with the
tender as Annex 3. Curriculum outlines and training designs submitted
with tenders are considered indicative of capacity to design and deliver
only and are not final.
Commencing in 2005, all IASTP III courses will include three
components which form the foundation for democratic, just, transparent,
accountable, responsive and participative governance, including:
o Good Governance a key to improved relationships between
Government, Business and Civil Society through good
communication, transparent processes and accountability in all
activities.
o Gender Awareness a key focus in civil society that needs to be
incorporated into Government and business activities.
o Change Management the process that will facilitate improved
performance across all areas.

The Service Provider is required to integrate these three components


throughout their technical training materials, into training delivery and
training assessment strategies such as pre and post tests. For assist in the
objective, IASTP III has developed the following documents:
Generic Module Training Guide a guide designed to provide necessary
information and background for presentation of the generic module on the
three core topics
Generic Module Integration Guide a guide designed to assist the Service
Provider to integrate the key principles and relevant practices of good
governance, gender awareness and change management into specialized
training materials and delivery methodologies.
In this case, no specific timeframe will be allocated to the delivery of each
topic or objective rather technical training materials produced by the Service
Provider can either be tailored to encapsulate the principles and concepts
engendered by the Generic Module Guides

Page 26

including a listing of participants names against their proposed Action


Plan title in the Completion Report.

Service Providers will need to work with Mentor(s) to assist participants during the
training program to plan the implementation of their Action Plans.
Service Providers may like to include in tender documents additional input to the
Action Plans proposed above, or to make further suggestions to incorporate new
learning from the training course.
Note: Action Plans are an integral, but not driving aspect of training courses.
Example of an Action Plan Form is at Attachment 3A.

Background to
Training Request:

IASTP has been delivering short course training both in Indonesia


and Australia over many years. This training has covered a broad
spectrum of issues ranging from health services management, health
services promotion and courses designed to upgrade the skills of
health personnel in relation to specific diseases such as TB,
HIV/AIDS, etc.
Under IASTP Phase III a new output under Component 3 Basic
Service Delivery called Bali Health Initiative has been introduced.
The purpose of this output is to respond to the needs identified under
the Bali Health initiative, and requires IASTP III to design courses to
meet the specific areas of technical and operational needs identified.
Consultations undertaken by IASTP III with the Bali provincial
health office and the Director General Community Health Services
has indicated the need for two separate courses to be delivered
simultaneously in Bali for two distinct groups of participants, as
follows:
Course 1 Advocacy for Senior Managers
Under the process of decentralisation and regional autonomy
currently occurring in Indonesia, the funding for hospitals and
community health centres (puskesmas) is now allocated through
provincial and/or district financial systems rather than being
allocated centrally as was previously the case. Consequently, the
managers of these organisations are now often required to submit
proposals to local government authorities, for example, the Bupati
(the government officer in change of the regency) and other agencies
such as international donors, in order to compete for funding beyond
the basic allocations provided. To this end, senior managers and staff
in health organisations need to develop and refine advocacy skills
which will assist them to identify funding sources, develop effective
submissions and design and apply quality assurance procedures to
ensure appropriate outcomes.
Course 2 Managing Community Health Services
In line with global trends towards community health care and
primary health care focuses, this course is designed to assist
managers within the community health system, both at the service
level (ie. hospitals and puskesmas) and within the governmental
structures (provincial health offices dinas) to identify ways in
which their service delivery can be improved. Therefore, the focus of
this course is on improving the alignment between the health needs
of the local community and the range and quality of health services
delivered by community health organisations.

Training Objectives:

Course 1 Advocacy for Senior Managers


On completion of Step 1 of this training participants will be able to:

explain the role of an advocate for communities, organisations
and individuals and describe ways in which the community
itself can be mobilised to act as an advocate on behalf of
health organisations.
Identify the range of sources of funding available for health
care within Indonesia, at the local, national and international
level.
Describe the role that data can play in preparing funding
applications, identify potential sources of data and
demonstrate the appropriate use of data in the preparation of a
simulated submission including effective use of charts,
diagrams, etc.
Outline the important points or issues to be covered in a
funding submission, including:

5.

7.

Purpose and objective of the submission and how this


matches the terms and conditions of the funding source.
Description of your organisation and how this funding will
assist it to achieve its overall vision and mission.
Support for the submission from stakeholders including
the community and how this support was gathered.
Activities and tasks to be undertaken if the funding is
made available.
Who will be responsible for the activities and reassurances
that sufficient resources exist within your organization to
implement the terms of the funding.
The timeframe for the implementation of activities and
strategies to be implemented if timelines slip.
Performance indicators that will be used to report on and
account for the use of the funding.
Analyse what is meant by effective writing skills, discuss how
to modify writing styles to fit the audience and the purpose,
and apply these skills to the production of the simulated
submission above.
Describe the major steps in producing a budget to accompany
submissions, identify a range of budget formats and their
suitability for different purposes and demonstrate the ability to
produce a simple budget suitable for attachment to the
simulated submission above.
Briefly outline the Government of Indonesias laws and
regulations applying to performance management and use
these as the basis for designing a system for monitoring and
evaluation including:

Indonesia Australia Specialised Training Project Phase III

Page 37

Performance indictors to be used


Tools for measurement
Reporting mechanisms.

On completion of Step 2 of this training, participants will be able to


apply all of the above skills to the development of an actual
submission which they will commence producing during Step 2.
Course 2 Managing Community Health Services
On completion of Step 1 of this training participants will be able to:
1. Define what is meant by the word community, identify the
major stakeholders in their community and define such terms as
population responsive health care, primary health care,
preventative/promotional health care, community
empowerment, inclusively, access and equity.
2. Describe the profile of their community in terms of a range of
criteria such as age, socio/economic status, geographic location,
health status etc; and list the major health care issues faced by
their community.
3. Compare the terms leadership and management and discuss the
impact of decentralisation in Indonesia on the role of the
managers of health care services in terms of decision making
processes, application of health care policies, responsibility for
quality of service delivery, human resource development,
financial management and infrastructure development and
maintenance.
4. Describe what is meant by public/private partnerships and
identify a range of mechanisms by which information can be
sought from the community to inform health service delivery
planning e.g. surveys, focus groups, local rapid assessments,
service mapping etc; and indicate the benefits and/or
disadvantages of these strategies within their own community
5. Explain how community needs/demands can be reconciled with
government policies, availability of resources etc in order to
plan service delivery which meets changing community needs
and evolving government policies.
6. Identify the elements of an effective HRM system, including:

assessing HRM capacity


undertaking HR planning including policies and procedures
establishing and maintaining HRM data systems
implementing Performance Management systems

planning and implementing HR development both informal


and formal training;

and describe how they would achieve improvements in these


areas within their own organisation.
Describe the basic principles of effective financial management
and explain how to use simple cost and revenue analysis tools to
contribute to the planning, monitoring and evaluation of service
delivery.
Outline the components of a Continuous Quality Improvement
(CQI) system based on the principles of customer service and
quality service delivery, including:
identifying criteria for what will be measured and when (e.g.
uptake of services, cost effectiveness of service delivery,
response times, improvements in care delivery etc)
clarifying who will be responsible for capturing, analysing
and making recommendations on data accumulated
determining timelines for the implementation of CQI
activities
establishing mechanisms by which identified improvements
can be implemented;

and describe how they would apply such a system within their
own organisation.
On completion of Step 2 of this training, participants will be able to
apply the above skills to the development of a plan for their
organisation related to one of the above aspects (eg. HRM, financial
management, assessing community needs, applying new leadership
styles, implementing CQI mechanisms) which will feed into their
action plan.
Methodology:

Note: The course will be delivered in Bahasa Indonesia and all


course materials will also be provided in Bahasa Indonesia.
Interpreters/translators will be used with non-Bahasa Indonesia
speaking trainers.
Lectures, group discussions, team work, videos or other forms of
individual of group teaching/learning methods appropriate to the
subject matter will be used. The primary mode will be facilitated,
participatory activity-based learning with an emphasis on creative
structuring of course material and teaching/learning. Previous
training participants have indicated that interactive methods such as
role plays, group discussions, debates, hypothetical etc. stimulate
more open and interesting discussion for participants and aid their
retention and application of learning.
Of particular importance will be relevant comparative Indonesian,
Australian and/or international case studies. Experience with inIndonesia training to date indicates that participants prefer a mix of

the health of their families etc)
Specific issues faced by women managers in hospitals,
community health centres and government departments
Concepts of division of labour based on gender
Additional
requirements:

The Director General of Community Health Services has indicated a


preference for an alumni forum to be held in Bali and the production
of a journal-style article.
The journal style article should be of approximately 4-6 pages long
and should encompass a recent and relevant issue in the area of
financial policy development at district and provincial levels. The
article could overview current trends internationally, a best practice
example from Australia or elsewhere, could critique readings, or
provide insight into a specific issue. It should be something outside

Indonesia Australia Specialised Training Project Phase III

Page 41

of the topics included in the current training and provide technical


update for previous IASTP participants in this course.
The forum would generally be held outside of normal training hours
during Step 1 training and would be of approximately 2-3 hours
duration. The purpose of the forum, like the journal article, is to
provide technical update for IASTP alumni. Consequently, the topic
chosen for the forum can be the same as that in the journal style
article. Participants for the forum would be predominantly, but not
exclusively, IASTP alumni but could also include local district office
staff, NGOs etc. It is envisaged that the Service Provider would hold
the forum one evening after training is finished for the day, and that
the venue would be the training venue. Therefore, the training
provider may need to set a limit on the number of attendees.

IASTP III CURRICULUM OUTLINE


How to use this proforma:
This proforma is intended to be used by Tenderers wishing to submit tenders for IASTP III
Specialised Training. The primary purpose of this proforma is to assist the IASTP III Tender
Assessment Panel 2 (TAP 2), held in Jakarta, to better assess the quality of the tenders
received for individual courses.
One of the primary selection criteria used by the TAP 2 in evaluating tenders is related to the
Tenderers response to the Course Specification. Two areas are considered, as follows:

Does the course show innovation in its approaches and with respect to the
delivery methodologies used?

Does the course as outlined in the tender documentation demonstrate an


understanding of the objectives of the training?

By completing this proforma and submitting it, along with the Course Outline and Workplan
for the Course, the Tenderer is signifying that they have given detailed consideration to the
content, approaches and methodologies they intend to use in delivering the course.
This proforma must be completed for ALL objectives for the course as listed in the Course
Specification distributed with the Request for Tender documentation. It is possible that a
Tenderer may choose to combine or consider some objectives together.
Incorporated into this proforma are instructions on what information should be included under
each section of the outline. In addition, under each instruction an example is shown in italics,
to assist Tenderers to identify the level of details required by IASTP III. The Tenderer should
delete this information and include information related to their own course content.
The TAP 2 will consider this proforma along with the course delivery timetable/schedule and
the tender narrative provided by the Tenderer.

OBJECTIVE FROM COURSE SPECIFICATION:

Instruction:
Insert a single objective from the Course Specification provided with the
Request for Tender Documentation.
Example:
Describe the principles of adult learning and how they influence training
methodologies.

TOPICS PROPOSED UNDER THIS OBJECTIVE:

Instruction:
Provide a list of topics which will be covered to ensure the objective above
will be met.
Example:
didactic and interactive teaching styles (eg student centred learning)
principles and benefits of using adult learning
identifying different learning styles (eg. oral/aural/visual)
using action learning techniques

ACTIVITIES/METHODOLOGIES PROPOSED:

Instruction:
Explain briefly the methodologies to be used to deliver the topics listed
above.
Example:
Group discussion of adult learning styles
Case study for different learning styles
Role play for didactic/student centred and action learning.

LEARNING OUTCOMES EXPECTED:

Instruction:
Describe the expected learning outcomes from participants who achieve this
objective. This is different to the objective itself as it is indicative of the
assessment criteria and therefore should be written in terms of the
performance of the participants.
Example:
Participants will be able to identify and compare didactic and student
centred learning styles and explain the benefits of using this methodology.

RELATIONSHIP TO ACTION PLAN:

Instruction:
Page 44

In this section, indicate how the topics listed above will be tied into the
Action Plan.
Example:
As the majority of participants are teachers in Islamic schools, their Action
Plans will be centred on using more interactive and student centred
methodologies in their teaching. During Action Plan development,
participants will be asked to identify at least one teaching methodology that
they intend to change from a didactic to interactive teaching method.
INTEGRATION OF GENERIC COMPETENCIES
(Gender, Good Governance, Change Management):

Instruction:
Indicate how the materials from the IASTP Generic Module (which was
provided along with the RFT documents) will be integrated into the
achievement of this objective
Example:
Discussion about learning styles will encompass gender based differences.
Communication techniques and the role of training in change management
will be discussed as part of action learning techniques.
Good Governance will be encapsulated into issues of accountability for
training with specific reference to how teachers can assess and report on
students achievements in the classroom
