The method used is descriptive survey, with a sample of 30 Posyandu cadres involved in anthropometric kit measurements. The results of the study show that before training, most Posyandu cadres were not skilled, but after training, most became skilled. The majority of cadres showed inadequate knowledge prior to training before training but improved significantly afterward.
