In order to encourage utilities to use their own skills centre for agent training, ASEA (Association of African Electricity Companies) has secured funding from the African Bank to develop a platform for linking the centres of excellence of the African Power Companies with the agents of these companies wishing to be trained. Reliable and up-to-date data are of paramount importance for the development of Africa's energy sector. Also, African policy makers and researchers have mobilized to launch several projects at the continental scale such as the African Energy Information System and the Database (SEIA) and the African Energy Efficiency Database.
The expected results were:
- Establishment of a complete and up-to-date directory of database users and focal points within all RACEE stakeholders;
- Implementation of harmonized data collection tools (summary sheets of data, forms, training registers and database), bilingual and allowing users to enter and exchange data on the situation of training courses in a friendly and efficient;
- Development of a user-friendly, secure information system, allowing the UoC to plan RACEE training at least three months in advance, as well as to program the scholarships to be awarded; analysis and reporting on key performance indicators of the project; to have a user survey tool.
