    The East and Central Africa Social Security Association (ECASSA) brings together social security entities in the African subregion. Through its partnership with SOCIEUX+, it aimed to deploy a set of training modules intended to upgrade the skills and competences available to staffs of the constituent organizations, on a number of relevant managerial and topic-related themes. A single training on “Human Resource Management for Non-Human Resource Managers” was delivered by experts from Belgium, with the participation of the ECASSA organizers and 10 relevant resource-persons of ECASSA member institutions. A compendium of 17 presentations has been made available by the experts to all participants of the training, and to ECASSA, which has further disseminated them among the larger membership.
