OAS Launches First Course on Voter Registration Policy and Practice
February 18, 2011
The OAS will launch the first edition of the online course titled, “Developing Strategies to Improve Voter Registries in the Americas,” to begin March 21st through the Educational Portal of the Americas’ Virtual Classroom (www.educoas.org). February 23rd is the deadline to receive applications for this first edition of the course.
The objective of the course is to expose voter registration policy makers and practitioners to frameworks, approaches and planning tools for the development of voter registration systems with integrity and in compliance with international standards. It is an introductory course that includes seven thematic modules, including one to become acquainted with the virtual classroom, and an evaluation module (scenario exercise) at the end.
The course is targeted to staff members of national Electoral Management Bodies, electoral authorities from OAS Member States with experience in electoral administration, political party representatives, and/or academics and other persons interested in the subject matter.
Although the total tuition cost of the course is $400, the OAS will provide financial aid of $200 to those participants who fulfill the necessary requirements.
This professional development course is the result of joint collaboration between the OAS Department of Human Development, Education and Culture (DHDEC) and the Department for Electoral Cooperation and Observation (DECO). Both departments have shared their technical, operational and human resources with a single aim in mind: to provide and increase training opportunities to citizens and residents of the region using new information and communication technologies.
The course will be delivered entirely online through the Educational Portal of the Americas’ Virtual Classroom (www.educoas.org), and under the academic and technical supervision of tutors that will guide participants throughout the duration of the course by helping them to access course content; suggesting reading and reference materials; analyzing and evaluating assigned activities; and resolving technical problems and answering questions.
