The Global CCCM Cluster has recently launched the camp management online course. This course has been developed by CCCM cluster colleagues from the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), International Organization for Migration (IOM) - the UN Migration Agency, and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) with NRC taking the principle design lead of the online platform.
This CCCM certified course introduces field practitioners to the latest best practices and most current resources for the unique and challenging job of working in camps. With the support of a qualified team of experts, participants will experience what it’s like to be in a camp management team in a variety of contexts and settings including: planned and self-settled camps, collective, reception, transit, and evacuation centres. Using self-direct learning, the course builds participants’ competence through videos, audios, useful links, practical exercises and games. Designed and developed by former camp managers this course aims to help participants make informed decisions, through realistic challenges faced in typical day-to-day camp situations.
The course takes approximately ten hours to complete, and consists of nine modules lasting between 45 and 60 minutes each. The course aims to help improve participants’ skills in core camp management themes of humanitarian principles and code of conduct, coordination, information management, community participation, protection and gender-based violence, standards and settlement design, safety and security, camp closure and durable solutions.
