Following their assessment on the LTO training, 9 of the participants were selected to be trained as possible core team members specialising as Election/Legal analysts. The curriculum was developed again between the Democracy and Election Assistance unit of the African Union (DEAU), the Electoral Institute for Sustainable Democracy in Africa (EISA) and EODS using most of the same trainers as for the LTO training. The training was held in French.
There was a focus on AU regional legal framework for elections as well as on effective work practices and report writing skills. A number of written exercises were used in each training as well as simulation and work group exercises. The development of the analytical skills of the participants was marked between the LTO course work and the Legal/Election Analyst coursework, demonstrating the value of the program.
