Capacity building of rural development officers rural development officers
and panchayat raj officers (rural administration) officers and
functionaries forms the most strategic aspect in mobilizing all the
schemes, policies and plans of the government and other
organization for rural development, as these officials are at the
grassroots, working directly with the rural communities and are
the key players in delivering the planned services and benefits to
the rural poor. The competence of these officers is directly
related to the successful implementation of the development plans.
APARD thus acts as an enabler in successful
implementation of rural development schemes and projects as it
trains and builds competency in the rural administrative and
development officers to efficiently deliver service to the people
and also creates awareness among the people about the services
available.
The institute caters to the capacity building requirements
of around 2.61 lakh elected representatives of Panchayat Raj
(Rural Administration) Institutions and around 50 thousand
officials from rural development department. It also extends its
service to various other government departments.

Training for capacity building is
imparted through both Direct Mode and Cascading modes.
Direct Training Programs on-campus training programs that are arranged
for all key functionaries at APARD, at our 5 Extension Training
Centres and at district levels.
Cascading Mode of Training is adopted for bigger groups
like Ward Members and other grass root level functionaries.
Suitable trainers are identified, who may be NGO workers, Retired
Officials, former members rural development departments. These
Trainers are subjected to rigorous training at APARD in using
Participatory methodologies for training the elected
representatives, and they inurn reach out the participants and
train them
APARD has also adopted Distance Mode of Training through centrally
located studio (located at Hyderabad) using Ku band Satellite

various departments. This approach helps us cover huge groups of
targeted participants and also enhance the training
experience.
