The pilot round of TAP's Operator Exchange Program, funded by IDRC, was conducted in 2006-07.  Telecenter and CAP experts from across North and South America had the opportunity to offer and request expertise in areas vital to their operations.  When a suitable "expertise match" was found, the participants could then develop a joint proposal to cover expenses (travel, communication, etc.) associated with this exchange.  The project funded 8 successful exchanges, the results of which are discussed in the final report.

As a CAP expert, you are encouraged to contact the PCNA about opportunities to share your knowledge (or get a little extra help!) in a future round of the TAP Operator Exchange Program.  It's a great way to see a different part of the world, do some good work, and further the success of the telecenter movement throughout the Americas!
