Program evaluation

Are you on track to where you want to be?
How close are you to your goals?
What does success look like?

Evaluation can tell you all this and more. We'll help you:
  • Define the impact you want to see from your work - your 'theory of change' or program logic.
  • Decide where you want to be - your outcomes and targets.
  • Develop success measures and performance indicators.
  • Document everything in one place using an evaluation plan.
  • Set up monitoring systems, embedded into your everyday work.
  • Evaluate results from your monitoring - What have we learned? What should we keep or change?
  • Write effective reports and communicate results to stakeholders and clients.
  • Capture those valuable lessons learned and ideas for continuous improvement.

You’ll improve your performance, make reporting easier, and achieve greater success with grants and tenders.

Training in program evaluation

We upskill your staff in evaluation theory, tools and techniques, making it relevant to their work and easy to understand. We'll show them how to write a great performance report for investors too.

Our Principal Consultant Renée Madsen is a Certificate IV qualified trainer and assessor. Renée's expertise in training design and delivery ensures engaging training that participants can apply to their work straight away.

We have years of experience in making evaluation accessible to a wide range of audiences. Our training participants tell us they're more confident with evaluation, and their performance reports are getting positive feedback from investors.

We offer one-on-one mentoring in addition to workshops. Contact us to find out more about tailoring evaluation training to your field of work and your requirements.

"Renée worked with us to develop a clear and efficient evaluation plan to inform continuous improvement. Renée helped us to identify existing processes that could be used, rather than create additional work. This is working well to embed evaluation throughout our service."
