Level 1 Curriculum: CRS staff, partners and other learners have the convenience of taking the current set of Partnership and Capacity Strengthening Level 1 Courses as a Curriculum. This includes all six Level 1 courses, as well as a brief review module and a certificate of completion. CRS staff can register or launch the Curriculum for themselves, or assign the Curriculum to their subordinates.

All CRS staff that work with partners are encouraged to take the entire Level 1 Curriculum. New staff that work with partners are encouraged to take the entire Level 1 Curriculum as part of their orientation, ideally within the first six months of employment.  Other staff may want to start with Partnership, Communication and Relationship Basics.
