Workshop Description
This informative workshop investigates how to pull together evidence and make sense of it, even though it might be coming from different places and consist of different types of data!
You will gain the latest understanding of best practice in reporting and explore what a positive funder relationship looks like.
Using evaluation for learning is just as important as using it to provide outcome evidence for your funders and this workshop examines how your evaluation practice can achieve both of these and more.
This event will be:
A mixture of PowerPoint presentation and trainer guided exercises. We’ll help you learn from other participants and apply the learning to your work. There will be an icebreaker exercise at the start of the day to get to know each other. Participants will be placed in small groups to complete group activities using Google Jamboards in breakout rooms.

At this workshop you will learn how to:
- Analyse information collected to evidence the achievement of your project outcomes
- Report on the achievement of project outcomes to funders and stakeholders
- Learn from the analysis to improve project delivery
For an engaging learning environment, we expect all attendees to actively participate in our workshops. Please read our digital etiquette and best practice for online events.
