With the funding of PEPFAR through USAID, FHI Vietnam has developed a
comprehensive training curriculum aimed at building the capacity of drug
counseling services in Vietnam. The training package, which consists of
slides and teaching notes has been developed since 2006 and undergone
extensive field-testing and revision. In order to ensure professional

       “teachers notes”, “training instructions” and “general

     * perform a final copy edit

The editor will be required to work to meet the tight deadlines and take
direction from FHI staff.


*Desired skill set:* experience in editing, demonstrated writing skills,
technical understanding of counselling, and social work.


*Deliveries:  *The consultant will work at the FHI office in Hanoi with
