Before attending the SayPro Monthly March Government Department and Municipality Tender Application Training Workshop, all participants are required to complete a pre-training survey. This survey is designed to gather important information about the participants’ experience levels, needs, and expectations. By completing the survey, participants help SayPro tailor the training material to be as relevant and useful as possible, ensuring that everyone receives the maximum benefit from the workshop.
Key Features of the Pre-Training Survey:
- Experience Level Assessment:
- The survey will ask participants to indicate their level of experience with government tender applications. This helps SayPro understand whether the participant is a beginner, has intermediate experience, or is an advanced tenderer.
- Based on the responses, the training material can be adjusted to address the appropriate level of detail and complexity, ensuring that all participants can follow along and gain value from the workshop.
- Specific Learning Goals:
- Participants will be asked to identify their specific learning goals for the workshop. Questions may include:
- What do you hope to learn from this workshop?
- Are there any specific challenges you’ve faced with the tendering process that you’d like help with?
- Are there particular aspects of the tendering process you want to focus on (e.g., documentation, pricing strategy, compliance)?
- This information allows SayPro to emphasize topics that align with participants’ goals and concerns.
- Participants will be asked to identify their specific learning goals for the workshop. Questions may include:
- Business Sector Information:
- Participants will be asked to provide details about their business sector (e.g., construction, IT services, logistics, etc.). This helps SayPro customize examples, templates, and case studies relevant to each sector’s tendering requirements.
- Understanding the industry sector will help the training focus on the unique needs and challenges of different industries when applying for government tenders.
- Previous Tender Experience:
- The survey will ask whether the participant has previously applied for government or municipality tenders. This helps SayPro determine whether the participant requires a more foundational understanding of the tendering process or is looking for more advanced strategies.
- Questions may include:
- Have you ever submitted a government tender?
- How many tenders have you applied for in the past?
- Did you secure any contracts through past tenders?
- Preferred Learning Methods:
- To ensure the training is as effective as possible, the survey will inquire about participants’ preferred learning styles. Questions may include:
- Do you prefer visual aids (e.g., slides, videos) or text-based materials?
- Would you like to engage in hands-on exercises or interactive discussions during the workshop?
- By knowing the preferred learning styles, SayPro can adjust the format of the sessions to better suit the needs of the participants.
- To ensure the training is as effective as possible, the survey will inquire about participants’ preferred learning styles. Questions may include:
- Availability and Commitment:
- Participants will be asked to confirm their availability for the live training sessions and to commit to attending the entire workshop.
- The survey will also check if participants plan to engage in the post-workshop activities, such as submitting a tender draft or attending one-on-one mentorship sessions.
- Technical Readiness:
- The survey will include a section to assess participants’ technical readiness. This ensures they have access to the necessary equipment and internet connection for the online components of the workshop.
- Participants will be asked whether they are familiar with using online platforms, video conferencing tools, and document submission systems.
- This helps SayPro ensure smooth delivery of the training sessions and anticipate any technical issues before the workshop begins.
- Feedback and Expectations:
- The survey will also ask participants to provide any specific expectations or concerns they may have. This feedback will be used to tailor the workshop to address these issues, ensuring that participants’ needs are met effectively.
