Request InformationCommon questions about Barrier Analysis training and implementation
No prior experience with Barrier Analysis is required for the introductory workshop. However, participants should have some background in project implementation, particularly in behavior change programming. For advanced workshops, basic familiarity with Barrier Analysis concepts is recommended.
Barrier Analysis trainings typically combine:
This comprehensive approach ensures participants gain both theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
The optimal group size is 15-25 participants. This allows for effective small group work while maintaining sufficient field teams for practice interviews. Larger groups may be accommodated with additional facilitators.
Yes, introductory workshops can be conducted virtually, with some adaptations to the field practice component. Participants typically conduct practice interviews in their local context and share results online. However, in-person training is generally more effective for building hands-on skills, especially for the field practice component.
Participants receive comprehensive training materials including:
