The primary goal of IPT-G ToT is to equip the MHPSS counsellors who were previously trained on IPT to train others as well as better implement group interventions for Depression.

Scope of work
The IPT-G ToT training will be provided by an experienced and certified IPT-G Trainer. The candidate should have a concrete background and experience in conducting such training.
The consultant will be responsible for assessing the capacity and the quality of the IPT trainees, develop a supervision and follow up plan for the team and prepare a final report on the IPT training as well as what needs to be improved for the current implementation of IPT-G.

Objectives of IPT ToT Training:
  • Build the capacity of the MHPSS staff in providing both IPT training as well as facilitating IPT Groups
  • Enable participants to improve the IPT group counseling skills
  • Identify gaps in the current IPT-G interventions
  • To develop practical and measurable supervision and follow up plan on the ToT trainees
