Developed and delivered in partnership between Actify and Evaluation Support Scotland – Thrive Training is a certified course designed to help organisations evaluate the impact of using physical activity and sport to achieve their outcomes.
Whether your role is part-time, full-time, or voluntary, if you use physical activity or sport to make a difference, Thrive can provide you with the tools and resources you need to get the best out of your practices!
Thrive is centred on the belief that to make a difference, all aspects of projects’ practice should be person-centred. This belief is woven throughout the 3 interlinked elements of Thrive: Plan, Do and Review.
About Thrive Learning
In 2015, Spirit of 2012 funded 11 Scottish projects with the aim of helping people become and remain more active. There was a strong emphasis on capturing and sharing the learning about what works, culminating in a national conference, local roadshows and the development of the Thrive Toolkit. Evaluation showed that projects would welcome further support to put the learning into practice. This led to the development of the wider Thrive Learning Programme which can help you use physical activity and sport to achieve a range of outcomes.
Feedback from participants:
“Taking part has reinforced my feeling that this is essential learning for all of my team. If we are to get better at understanding and sharing the impact of sport and physical activity we need to be better equipped. Having all trained and able to access learning from others and tools to support projects will make a difference as we try and use sport and physical activity more intentionally to bring about change.”
Jude Deacons, Community Activation Manager, Active Stirling
“I’m often guilty of establishing programmes and measuring success purely on attendances. I think outcomes can support a much wider process of evaluation.”
