1. Literacy Training Coordinators: UAGS had two Literacy Training Coordinators (one for the ANA and ANP) who coordinated and prepared training schedules, made arrangements for new classes, and monitored and reported attendance and academic results for their separate programs. 2. Site Leaders: Due to the size of the Afghan National Army literacy program and the need to constantly plan and interact with members of the Coalition Forces, Ministry of Defense, and local ANA unit commanders, UAGS had five Site Leaders, one per major unit area. The Site Leaders coordinated the training and logistical needs for all literacy classes within their area. They reported directly to the ANA Literacy Training Coordinator. 3. Senior Master Teachers: UAGS had two Senior Master Teachers (ANA & ANP). These individuals served as a direct link to the students and teachers of the program. They routinely inspected and visited classes and reported directly to the program management staff on issues relating to the success and advancement of the students and staff. The Senior Master Teachers each had over 30 years of experience in Afghan education, both public school and the ANSF. 4. Master Teachers: Master Teachers were the direct supervisors of classroom teachers. UAGS recently had 21 Master Teachers, 16 with the ANA and 5 with the ANP. The Master Teachers served as instructional leaders at the major training locations throughout UAGS’s training area. They generally supervised the activities of 20-30 teachers. Due to the different structures of the ANA and ANP, the size of the programs, and the required oversight needs, the ANA literacy program had a larger number of Master Teachers. The ANP program is more dispersed and required a greater number of instructional leaders covering smaller geographical areas, which was covered by the Lead Teachers. 5. Lead Teachers: In several UAGS instructional areas, Lead Teachers were utilized to supervise approximately 5-10 teachers. Some training locations, especially within the Afghan National Police, were located in very remote areas. In these cases, Lead Teachers monitored the academic progress and reported directly to Master Teachers. Within the ANA at Kabul Military Training Center, Lead Teachers were assigned to supervise teachers and monitor the progress of Basic Warrior Training kandaks. 6. Teachers: To support this large-scale literacy program, UAGS most recently employed over 600 teachers. These teachers conducted literacy classes for the ANSF at hundreds of different locations throughout the central eastern provinces of Afghanistan, with many classes being conducted in remote and hostile locations. UAGS teachers were vetted, approved by the Ministry of Defense and/or Ministry of Interior, and maintained certification from the Ministry of Education. Download 221.99 Kb. Share with your friends:
