Capacity Building and Skills Development Programme for the Laboratories of the Local Government Infrastructure and Transportation Research Centre (LoGiTReC) in Tanzania – Final Report

This final report highlights the results and outcomes of the project

Abstract

This project is aimed at assisting the Local Government Infrastructure and Transportation Research Centre (LoGITReC) in Tanzania to achieve its objective of capacity building and skills development for its staff.

This final report highlights the results and outcomes of the project. The project benefits are already evident and the target indicator of providing laboratory and field testing services has been met in less than six months. As a result of this project, efforts are underway to initiate the inter-calibration study programme that will be implemented across civil engineering laboratories in Tanzania. Through this project a critical mass of skilled laboratory personnel with a good understanding of the fundamental principles of testing in accordance with the CML Laboratory Manual 2000, has been created for the benefit of other Local Government entities.

This project is funded by DFID under the Applied Research on Rural Roads and Transport Services through Community Access Programmes in Africa and Asia (AFCAP2 and AsCAP)
