Standard Days Method Training via Interactive Voice Response (IVR)
This initiative explored whether remote trainings via Interactive Voice Response (IVR) enabled technology could be used to successfully train low-literacy providers at the community level in Nigeria and Rwanda. Overall, findings from three program sites confirm the IVR training is a viable way to train low-literacy community workers to offer SDM, and this format can serve as another way to further strengthen FAM in service delivery settings.
Attached, please find:
- The IVR Project Brief, which describes the intervention in Nigeria and Rwanda, and the results.
- The IVR Implementation Guide, which describes the process followed during implementing a training course in the Standard Days Method® (SDM) delivered via IVR.
- The IVR Curriculum Guide, which is the training course for the Standard Days Method® (SDM) that is delivered through Interactive Voice Response (IVR). It should be used in conjunction with the Implementation Guide.
