Monitoring and evaluation may not sound all that exciting, but it gives you the information to highlight your impact to funders, partners, supporters and volunteers.  Seeing your impact in black and white can be very motivating and inspiring to your organisation and to others. 

This session will provide you with a basic understanding of how to plan and carry out monitoring and evaluation to demonstrate your impact. Whether you have just set up your group, or have been going for a while, we can help you start out on the right foot or review your current framework to check it still meets your needs.

We will cover:

• How to decide what data to collect
• Manageable / realistic data collection
• Quantitative versus qualitative data
• How to develop an evaluation framework
• Understanding your data and reporting your impact
• Meeting requirements of your partners / funders
• Being open and transparent
• Learning from the process and making improvements

Join us, the Cherwell Collective, Oxford Community and Voluntary Action (OCVA) and Community First Oxfordshire to learn the why, what and how of monitoring and evaluation.
