Resource Session – Making sense: analysing as you go

In these short free lunchtime sessions we will introduce one of our resources and share tips to help you get the most out of it, you’ll also have the chance to ask any questions. We have lots of great resources and practical tools freely available on our website – please let us know if there is a particular resource you’d like to see featured in a future session!

These sessions are designed for those with an existing knowledge of evaluation working in the third sector; those working in the public sector may also find them useful and are welcome to attend.  As a charity, our priority is to support volunteers and those employed in the voluntary and public sectors; therefore, our free resource sessions are not available to private consultants.

Come join us as we introduce the following resource:

About the resource:

The ‘Making sense: analysing as you go’ resource can be used to help you collate your evidence.

You don’t always have to wait until after your delivery session to analyse your outcome evidence; sometimes you can “code as you go”.

You can find out about other resource sessions we’re hosting here. If you want to suggest a resource for a future session, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. To hear about new session dates, sign up to our newsletter or follow us on social media.

If you are you looking for training on evaluation, we would recommend our workshop Let’s Evaluate! Lite or the full Let’s Evaluate! programme. If you would like a support session, please see tailored support for more information on how we can support you with specific evaluation needs.

Senior Training Officer

About Shona

Shona joined ESS in February 2017. She spent many years prior to this working and volunteering in various areas of the third sector including youth work, criminal justice, and HIV & hepatitis C. 

Shona’s role at ESS involves developing and delivering our training programmes, as well as facilitating tailored evaluation support sessions. Her work is about helping organisations to plan their evaluation, keeping it simple and relevant to their context and the people they work with.

“My favourite part of my job is talking to organisations about fit-for-purpose evaluation; helping them to be clear about the difference they hope to make, how they know when they’re making it, and how best to capture that with their own situation and people in mind.

Often, many are pleasantly surprised to realise that they’re already doing it – they just don’t have it written down in a clear evaluation plan. That’s where I come in!”
