This led to the development of training materials that addressed the full cycle of preparedness <strong>and</strong><br />
response needs, as illustrated by Bangladesh’s Trainer Notes for District Offi cials to Train Upazilla<br />
Offi cers on <strong>Avian</strong> Infl uenza (HP<strong>AI</strong>) Outbreaks, <strong>and</strong> Workbook for Upazilla <strong>and</strong> District Offi cers. These<br />
materials provided guidance on the full “job cycle” of these offi cers, from educating people about<br />
avian infl uenza, to watching <strong>and</strong> reporting fi ndings, to collecting samples for testing, to sending<br />
samples to laboratories <strong>and</strong> receiving results, to taking action during an outbreak, to taking action<br />
after an outbreak, including restocking.<br />
On many occasions, <strong>AI</strong>.<strong>COMM</strong> training modules were adapted so they could be conducted in<br />
a shorter timeframe if schedules <strong>and</strong> other constraints did not allow for the full training. For<br />
example, media orientations were provided in one-day or two-day versions, <strong>and</strong> interpersonal<br />
communication trainings were offered in one-day or half-day sessions to accommodate each<br />
community’s needs.
