Human Resource Development is the backbone of the SRSO, it provides meaning to the process of social mobilization by delivering capacity-building training to the mobilized community, instrumental to creating the proactive community. SRSO’s HRD Department was established in 2003 and 2013 was transformed into the SRSO – Institute of Management And Skill Development (IMSD). For 10 years the HRD has met the training needs of SRSO staff and community members.
The Institute of Management and Skill Development (IMSD) supplements the work of all other programs by providing training in skills enhancement and management. It takes on the results achieved by the Social Mobilization Section to build the capacity of community activists (male/female) both in terms of community basic management skills and sectorial skills. IMSD works towards poverty alleviation and pursues this objective by providing capacity development opportunities through formal training, on-the-job technical training, and experience-sharing seminars workshops, and conferences, both for the community members as well as the staff, while following full training cycle management protocols according to need.
IMSD works all year round and has been assigned several complementary roles to widen its scope and strengthen SRSO’s efforts in creating self-assured, self-reliant proactive communities.
There are four main components of the IMSD capacity-building effort:
