5.4 Conclusion

From the twenty two days training it can be concluded that:

All the participants were very sincere, hardworking, enthusiastic and ready to learn at any time.

This training provided an opportunity to bring experienced micro hydro operation

from different background together in a forum.

The training was found to be effective in terms of previously worked at site, trainees dedication and effort, training materials, logistics, physical facilities and cooperation of AEPC.

Trainees demand for extended schedule with more practical focusing in only

generator and transformer coil winding.

It is believed that this training will help the participants to become competent and confident operator in applying the skills and knowledge .

5.5 Recommendations

Following recommendations are made on the basis of participants' and trainers' experience of training:

As there were no female participants out of 25 participants, it is recommended to encourage females to participate in the training.

In future it would be better if training could organize in winter rather then rainy season .
