The Directorate of Literacy & Non-Formal Education (DL&NFE), in collaboration with UNICEF, conducted training for 'Master Trainers' at Government Elementary College of Education, Hyderabad, from August 17 to 23, 2026. The Master Trainers will build the capacity of 120 NFE facilitators on the accelerated learning approach for out-of-school adolescent girls. Thardeep Rural Development Programme (TRDP) is implementing the NFE project in partnership with UNICEF and SELD. The core content covered child-centred and participatory pedagogy; teaching methods for literacy and numeracy; delivery of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL); management of multi-level, mixed-age NFE classrooms; the use of teaching and learning materials; and the assessment, equivalency, and certification processes for learners.
Creating safe, inclusive, and gender-responsive learning environments for adolescent girls was the key focus throughout the training. For the learners, this training will result in better-paced instruction through the learning packages, stronger literacy, numeracy, and learning outcomes, smoother progression toward equivalency and certification, and a safer, more engaging classroom environment that supports retention.

Good work
KINDLY SHARE PPTs of training
Good work
I have been teaching children in my village for the past five years. However, I do not have any furniture or a proper place to teach them. At the moment, I conduct classes with very limited resources. I kindly request your support in providing a learning center and basic furniture so that I can continue educating the children in a better environment. Your help would make a significant difference in their future. I would be truly grateful for any assistance you can provide. Thank you for your time and consideration.
