Abstract	An evaluation review was done of the training activities of the Creating a New Approach to Learning Project (Project CANAL) during the first half of Year 4 of the project. The review covered types of training opportunities that were available, observations on participation by members of the groups for whom the training was designed, some description of training content, and comments from a Monitoring Commission observer. The workshops were targeted for special groups including the core planning team (CPT) chairpersons for whom several workshops were held with varying levels of attendance. Three orientation sessions were held for local school council (LCS) members. Several workshops were also held for principals. Additional workshops were held for parent liaisons, and students. Training for CPT and LSC members used nine instructional models for improving academic achievement. Overview analysis suggests that the project continues to have difficulty in attracting individuals to its training sessions; and that while members of target groups are frequently absent, large numbers of others, especially parents, attend training that does not appear designed for them. Includes 12 tables and appendixes containing a list of Phase I and II schools, training center activities, a monitoring commission staff resume, and budget status. (JB)
