“The interactive parts- tabletop exercises, jeopardy, aftershock game- were very good to integrate, contextualize the information”

Face-to-FaceTrainingProgram

The Canadian Disaster and Humanitarian Response Training Program is the only competency-based training program designed by humanitarian professionals for humanitarian professionals in Canada.

The global humanitarian sector has recently seen a period of intense growth and change,

greatly impacted by the complex and evolving nature of modern disasters. Rapid urban-

ization, chronically conflict-ridden regions and severe climate change related disasters

have translated into a global rise in displaced populations searching for security and

access to basic services. This constantly growing need has driven the demand for a more

professional and accountable humanitarian workforce that is well adapted to the chang-

ing circumstances worldwide.

The Canadian Disaster and Humanitarian Response Training Program is a competency-based,

performance-measured training program designed by humanitarian professionals, for

humanitarian professionals. Participants become proficient in core competencies that are

vital to safe and efficient work in the field. The core knowledge offered throughout the

program is of paramount importance for all humanitarian professionals; particularly for

logisticians, project managers, security personnel, human rights lawyers, and health care

professionals.

The Canadian Disaster and Humanitarian Response Training Program is the only program

of its kind in Canada that includes a three day intensive simulation exercise. Since 2013,

we have trained over 250 students from Montreal and across Canada, the United States

and abroad. Our instructors come from institutions and international humanitarian

organizations with extensive field experience.

program that proposes a novel three-way blended approach that combines an online

BLOCK THREE

Simex

The Simulation Exercise is a unique opportunity for participants to practice their

core competencies in an immersive simulation environment. The 3-day field-based

Disaster Simulation Exercise (SimEx) is a highly interactive simulation set in the

fictional country of Simlandia, and focuses on the development of key skills such as

negotiation, applying principals of humanitarian law, safety and security, and

leadership. These skills are vital to good humanitarian practice and often are

the hardest skills to learn.

LANGUAGE: To successfully participate in the program, we recommend

that participants have at least a B2 English language level (CEFR).06

BLOCK ONE

Online Interactive Case-based Training

The Core Professional Humanitarian Training Program is a unique online

educational product in the humanitarian sector. It is a comprehensive,

competency-based, evidence-based, peer reviewed foundational program

for aspiring humanitarian professionals. The Program uses a variety of teaching

tools and techniques and can track and assess learner’s progress.

The 4 courses included in the Core Professional Humanitarian Training

must be completed prior to May 9, 2016.

BLOCK TWO

Face-to-Face Social Learning

The Classroom Sessions of the Program aim to engage students in

humanitarian-like scenarios, requiring them to apply the knowledge they learned

through the online course. This block is comprised of lectures, student

presentations and small-group tabletop activities that will focus on team

effectiveness, leadership, cross-cultural communication, and more. It will also

compound the knowledge gained in Block One, equipping learners with the

framework and skills to apply their knowledge in Block Three. The face-to-face

teaching is organized into daily sessions, each facilitated by an expert in their

specific field of humanitarian action.
