Evaluation and Monitoring Training

Understanding the difference your project makes is essential for learning, improving, and securing future funding. This practical, hands‑on session helps you explore what “impact” really means, why it matters, and how to measure and communicate the change your work creates.

What the session covers:

• What “impact” is and why evaluating your work is essential for learning, improvement, and funding success

• How to plan your evaluation using simple tools like a Theory of Change

• What information you need to collect—inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes—and how to tell the story behind your data

• Practical methods for gathering both quantitative and qualitative data, from surveys to interviews to photos and case studies

• How to analyse your findings to identify progress, challenges, patterns, and unexpected outcomes

• Using your results to improve your project, demonstrate value to funders, and celebrate success with your community

• An introduction to more advanced approaches like Social Return on Investment (SROI) and cost‑benefit analysis, and when they may be useful for your organisation

Who is it for?

Perfect for staff, volunteers, project leads, managers, trustees, partnership workers, and anyone involved in planning, delivering, or funding community projects who wants to better understand, assess, and communicate their impact.

Whether you’re completely new to evaluation or want to strengthen your existing approach, this session offers clear, supportive guidance.

Why attend?

Understanding and demonstrating your impact isn’t just a reporting requirement—it strengthens your work, your organisation, and your connection with the community.

This session gives you the tools and clarity to showcase your achievements, improve your work, and tell a convincing, data‑backed story about the positive change your project creates.
