CAB members are lay persons from our different communities. They are not scientists so it is crucial that we make the feel that their contribution to the research is equally valuable and appreciated. Yes training is essential and must be done but also let them identify what their training needs are in alignment with the research. I feel that it is also important to consider the different literacy levels and work at ways of bridging such gaps so that training can be effective and enjoyable to all participants.
