• Monitoring instructions should provide guidance on basic responsibilities, including: case identification and selection criteria, case-monitoring methodology, reporting methodology, and instructions related to the security of monitors. • All monitors should be provided access to both primary and secondary legal reference materials. • An initial training session tailored to all facets of a programme’s specific monitoring methodology should be provided to all staff in advance of monitoring. For longer-term programmes, training should be organized at least once a year and whenever there is a change in the focus or methodology of the programme. • Programmes should provide regular field support as part of ongoing management. Field support activities include: feedback on reporting; team meetings; report-sharing; monitor-pairing; monitor rotation; and providing opportunities for continuing education.
