The technical part of the agency is one of the key aspects of the association. The technical committee was established essentially to:

Provide scientific and technical advice and information.

Make necessary recommendations to the training programs.

To this end, it has responsibility to oversee the training programs in order to maintain high standards and to ensure strategic priorities. This involves input at a number of stages, from the development of high quality training proposals for funding to consistency in implementation.

In the same vein the technical committee of the agency is also responsible to develop performance indicators and to ensure measurable outputs/outcomes in terms of these indicators.

Project initiation

The technical committee has the responsibility to develop the training proposals that are of strategic importance for the attainment of NNMGA objectives.

To this end below are some of the key aspects that the technical committee takes into consideration:

 The relevance of work to the overall NNMGA objectives

 The assessment of the feasibility of the project objectives

 The clear specifications of the range and types of anticipated outputs

Project management

The technical committee is also responsible in providing necessary guidance to the trainings particularly for those with a high technical content. Each member is responsible to provide feedback at regular intervals.

Training reporting

The technical committee is responsible in evaluating the conclusion of the training program.

Post training evaluation

NNMGA trainings should always be subject to critical post-training evaluation. The technical committee is given the responsibility to evaluate the post-training evaluation undertaking the criteria that address the problems of practical implementation and lessons learnt and recommendations for future related activity.
