We can carry out an evaluation for you or, even better, help you to build evaluation into your everyday work.
Our Self-Evaluation Support Service (SESS) fills the gaps in your knowledge and capacity. This could involve our help in:
- Developing your ‘theory of change’.
- Forming realistic outcomes and indicators.
- Designing an evaluation framework to organise your work.
- Selecting creative and user-friendly evaluation techniques.
- Designing questionnaires and other research tools.
- Making sense of the monitoring data you gather.
- Checking the evaluation evidence you produce.
- Writing reports to funders and responding to their requirements.
We keep our input (and cost) to a minimum; just enough to build your confidence, systems, and skills. Depending on your needs this could include:
- Evaluation workshops to help build skills and plan activity.
- Mentoring meetings offering ongoing guidance and encouragement.
- One-off or regular feedback by email or telephone.
- Hands on assistance as required.
