    Web Application Designers

    1.    Preparation of the Proposal
    NPHCDA will not reimburse expenses including travel expenses incurred by the consultant in the preparation of the proposal and (or) in the negotiation of the eventual contract ensuing. However, authorized travel costs to project sites outside will be paid for by HKI to the consultant. The contract will be negotiated in Abuja.

    2.    Scope of Work
    NPHCDA requires the service of a consultant as a web application designer to specifically perform the following tasks:

    •    Develop MNCHW training delivery packages for National, state and LGA levels
    •    Develop standardized MNCHW online (internet) and offline (video) training packages with the following features;
    1.    The online training should be flexible and accessible to participants for a certain number of weeks. Each module should also be restricted to a certain number of days after which if exceeded, participant should be logged off and he/she has to start from the beginning if test has not been passed.
    2.    There should be inbuilt participant knowledge assessment (test) at the end of each training module. The participant should also be given an option to save result once a test has been passed. So he can log off and come back to the module later to start from where he/she stopped.
    3.    The offline training is for participants that do not have internet. There should be a restriction on both types so that people can’t work with both simultaneously. For example, a person should not read offline and answer questions online
    •    Develop simplified training assessment tool for the different levels
    •    Develop outline on the usage of the package from registration of participants to the printing of the certificate after the assessment
    •    Develop the assessment tracking system for both online and off-line participants
    •    Facilitate pre-testing of the training package developed at both the National (with FMOH and NPHCDA officers) and at least in three states from three geopolitical zones
    •    Develop an instruction manual on how to use the web application
    •    Revise and finalize training delivery packages.
    •    Produce facilitators guide for the different packages
    •    Debrief to Technical Committee

    1.    The training delivery package for all levels
    2.    Facilitators guide
    The finalized module should be ready for use in the national and three pilot states during the May 2015 round of MNCH Week. Thereafter, it will be evaluated and then scaled up to all the states in the country.

    3.    Deliverables
    a)    A standardized MNCH Week web-based training module that is comprehensive in all the interventions during MNCH week, easy to use and understandable to the health workers at all levels.

    Functionalities:
    1.    There is a time-limit to a selected training, both online and offline. So when a user selects a training it must be completed within the period specified (this is separate from the time allocated directly to the test itself).
    2.    The printable formats should include .pdf, .jpg - These two formats are commonly known to be immutable.
    3.    Resuming from Logging off during a test session will bring one to the last test question pending during last log off.
    4.    The offline solution will be accessible from a user's resident computer storage.
    5.    The interface will have a feature to select which mode of learning to select - either Online, or Offline.
    6.    A group training and assessment feature to be implemented on the offline mode, with the functionality to;
    •    Allow multiple registrations of users.
    •    Allow multiple selections of users for training sessions

    •    Assessment to be taken by the facilitator
