Abstract
A training program on manufacturing of dairy products was take place in Faculty of Agriculture, New Valley University targeting rural women leaders. The research goal is to determine whether the trainees (of rural women leaders in the New Valley Governorate) tend to satisfy their prioritized training needs during the training or not, and to what extent? Through the following objectives: 1) Assessing training needs of respondents using Delta N method, 2) Determining the learning index of the training program on trainees' knowledge, 3) Investigating the ex-post differences on trainees' knowledge, and 4) Determining the correlation between ranks of the training needs and their learning index. Data were collected from the 27 trainees using questionnaire form during 12 and 15 March 2018. Delta N was used for ranking the training needs of respondents before the training. Mean, standard deviation, percentages, learning index, paired sample differences, Kendall & Spearman rank correlation coefficients were used for data analysis and presentation. Findings indicated the positive change of trainees' knowledge by 10.41 mean score (26.03% of the total score). Considerable proportion of respondents (74.07%) has moderate level of learning index. Findings of "t" values referred to significant differences of trainees' knowledge caused by training. Finally, the application of Kendall and Spearman rank correlation coefficients between values of Delta-N and learning index has indicates a positive correlation coefficient of 0.714 and 0.810, respectively. This finding confirms that the trainees tend to satisfy their prioritized training needs during the training with very acceptable extend.
