SOP4: Training manual for instructors

This document is intended for ESPEN Collect trainers and will serve as a guide for all training courses on the use of the ESPEN Collect platform. This training will be required before each survey and will be organised by the ESPEN Collect trainers for the data entry operators. 

The ESPEN Collect trainer must be familiar with the application as well as with the protocol of the survey to be carried out with ESPEN Collect. It is essential that the trainer has a good knowledge of “SOP 3: ESPEN Collect Step-by-Step Guide”, “SOP 4: Training Manual for Trainers” and “SOP 5: Organizing Surveys”. 

This guide provides details on organising training, including planning, teaching methods and materials required. It also contains practical advice on how to engage participants and ensure effective training. 

Trainers should read this guide carefully before delivering training to ensure a full understanding of procedures and expectations. By following this guide, trainers will be able to prepare and conduct effective training sessions, thereby contributing to the success of ESPEN Collect surveys.
