The Program Monitoring and Implementation Unit, also known as the PMIU, published an online training timeline to get teachers and education staff ready for the process.
Master trainers received instruction on October 16 according to the timeline, while IT teachers, Assistant Education Officers, and head teachers attended online classes from October 17 to 19.
