By the end of the course participants will be able to identify and describe the outcomes that a project or activity aims to achieve and use their understanding of the core principles of evaluation to better focus their own evaluation work. Participants will learn techniques for use in evaluating and monitoring the outcomes of their own work and be better able to design an evaluation of their own work.

  • be able to identify and describe the outcomes that a project or activity aims to achieve
  • be able to use their understanding of the core principles of evaluation better to focus their own evaluation work
  • be better able to design an evaluation of their own work
  • be better able to implement an evaluation of their own work
Who is this course for?
