Audience:

Extension educators who are helping others learn about and conduct evaluation to measure outcomes of community-based programs. This includes faculty and staff who are.
(1) working with community organizations (coalitions,
governmental units, schools, agencies) to build evaluation

Level:

Intermediate
This highly interactive workshop is based on a 'train-the-trainer' model. It assumes that participants know the fundamentals of evaluation and are helping others learn about and be able to conduct evaluation.

Description:
|
This workshop increases participant skill in being able to build the capacity of others in evaluating outcomes. Participants learn and practice as they cover all aspects of evaluation appropriate for community-based programming with a particular emphasis on outcomes. Each participant receives a comprehensive manual of activities, handouts and powerpoint slides that they can use 'back home'. These materials form the basis of the technical content and facilitation techniques we model that will help you dispel fears, build confidence and the evaluation skills of others. The workshop covers evaluation subject matter that others need to know. We also model and practice innovative and fun techniques for helping others learn.
This 15 hour in-service starts at 5 pm on Tuesday and
finishes over lunch on Thursday. |
