Training, Education, and Research in Electoral Administration

Training and professional development is an investment in the EMBs ability to perform its primary task, administering an electoral contest.  Poor or inadequate training hampers service delivery and increases the risk of election blunders that negatively impact the reputation of the EMB or the election outcome itself. Building the EMB workforce's capacities reinforces and inculcates electoral administration values and principles.
