Whether it’s for a specific project or your daily work, evaluating and monitoring is crucial to understanding your success, improving your practices, and showing your impact to funders and decision makers.

This course aims to give you a greater understanding of evaluating and monitoring outcomes, and to help you better evaluate your work. You will learn key definitions including outcomes, outputs, indicators and activities, and explore the way in which these terms may be used differently in various contexts and by different organisations.

By the end of the course you will be able to identify and describe the outcomes that a project or activity aims to achieve and use your understanding of the core principles of evaluation to better focus your evaluation work. You will discover techniques for use in evaluating and monitoring the outcomes of your work and be able to confidently design and evaluate.
