In the second stage selected teachers are provided advance training on environment and sustainable development to act as master trainers. These training workshops are conducted at district headquarters on demand. Fellows of Young Leadership Development Program play a vital role in materializing the objectives of Green Teacher Initiative-III.

School Leadership Development Program
By: Punjab Education Foundation

Considering the school principals' pivotal role and their decisive input in managing the affairs of the schools even to the minutest details, it was realized that many teachers were finding it difficult to incorporate and integrate the newly envisaged teaching techniques in their mentoring practices. Out of many associated reasons for this, non-sensitization of school principals was being cited as the main obstacle. In addition to this many school principals had repeatedly requested PEF to launch a separate training event for the school principals/heads & second-in-command precisely focusing on their administrative and pivotal needs. This led PEF to launch 2 days SLDP Program in February, 2007.

Through this SLDP module school heads/principals are sensitized on educational management aspects with particular focus on education theories, interactive teaching methods, effective school management & the use of pedagogical skills.

Each SLDP module is 6 hours event in which 15-20 participants are invited. Each participant is paid honorarium @ Rs. 150/- per day, served refreshment @ Rs. 75/- per day and workshop participation certificate by PEF. The services of eminent training organizations are hired that conduct SLDP at a given cost.

Cluster Based Training (CBT)
By: Punjab Education Foundation

The poor educational learning outcomes of students have become a matter of great concern for parents, public and private sector managers of education. The deficient human capital in education sector has a major constraining influence on the quest for achievement of excellence in the field of quality education.

The lack of qualified manpower in teaching profession at primary, secondary, higher secondary and tertiary level has impeded the national strategies aimed at optimal service delivery mechanism for quality education and the umpteen desires of the stakeholders to have quality premier institutions in public and private sector, essentially remained unfulfilled, barring a few honorable exceptions.

At the moment, approximately, 40% educational institutions in urban areas and more than 30% in rural areas in the Province of Punjab are being run and managed in the private sector. The private educational institutions have a vast and varied range, starting from the elite school systems, to average schools and low-cost private educational institutions. The low-cost educational institutions not only lack proper physical infrastructure but are also deficient in human capital in the shape of qualified teachers.

The process of human development is time consuming, slow and gradual. The processes essentially demand patience, dedication, political will and investments. It always takes an extra mile at the national level in terms of policy-making theatrics, to build the social capital with assimilated didactic resource base and the right capacity to exercise the analogical deductions from the knowledge base. If an organization or institution is unable to generate the requisite social capital to implement the policies and programs and give them the confidence through continuous capacity building, then in the final analysis it tantamount to both policy and institutional failure.

In case of educational institutions and quality teachers, the teachers and teachers alone are the agents of change: the real hope for the future of communities and the repositories of knowledge, expertise, traditions and values. The investment in professional development of teachers is therefore the right investment for the formation of human capital and decidedly the most accurate investment in future.
