This study attempted to analyse the cost‐effectiveness of the Radio Education Teacher Training Project in Nepal. Cost‐effectiveness is denned as a procedure by which the cost of alternative means of achieving a stated objective, or conversely, the effectiveness of alternative means for a given cost, are compared in a series of numerical indices. Comparison of the costs of the Radio Education Teacher Training Project and the Campus‐Based Teacher Training Programme showed the latter to be much higher.
