Complexity and the Art of Evaluation – Reporting Sheet
Topic: Where are they now? Evaluating impacts of training programs over time
Leader: Mark Boulet
Participants: Scott McKenry (NCS Swinburne), Elle Morrell (MEFL), Beth Hyland, Candyce Presland, Maxine Schache, Diane Nichols, Cathy Wills (Swinburne)
Key Points: (INSERT PICTURE)
How do we evaluate impact of training programs over time?
Funders and “deliverers” of programs need to have more conversations about long-term evaluations:
- what do each need?
- how can they connect?
What partnerships need to be formed? What relationships need to be credited?
Recognise that we need to move beyond evaluation sheets at end of training
If you want to involve participants in evaluations, you need to train them, get them excited by it as a practice. Makes them more amenable to being ‘evaluated’.
Some of us already doing this:
- DPI (Farmer CD)
- ACF (GreenHome)
- NCS (Carbon Accounting ??)
