This session targeted committee leaders and cashiers of fishery communities in six different areas: Fishery Tapon, Beng Tim, Samdech, Baseth, Por Battambang, and youth-focused commercial development communities in Roka and Tapon Communes, Sangker District, Battambang Province, Cambodia.
The total participation for this training was 21 individuals, including 6 women.

This training session had the objective of improving participants’ understanding of financial procedures and fundamental accounting systems. The aim was to equip them with the necessary skills to adeptly manage tasks like recording, filing, and generating reports using diverse financial formats. The ultimate goal was to empower them to effectively carry out these responsibilities within their designated roles.
Expected Results:
1. Do not know – 0 Person
2. Average – 7 Persons
3. Know a lot – 13 Persons
Next Plan:
CTOD will develop lesson plans for the remaining nine topics scheduled for 2024, intending to deliver these sessions to the 12 fishing communities and Cooperative Agriculture in Battambang Province, Cambodia. Furthermore, the communities were trained by the initial trainees who then took on the responsibility to promote and deliver continuous training to other members within their respective communities.
