Surveys are a popular data collection tool because they are so easy to use and have the potential to reach large populations even with a relatively small investment of time and technical resources. But, as survey fatigue grows, we must craft richer, more concise, and more focused survey questions to keep respondents engaged and yield accurate and useful data.

This training course is dedicated to helping you become an efficient and successful manager so that you can more efficiently influence and coordinate action with others. During the five days, you put into practice all the theories that are covered, making it an incredibly practical course.

If you attend this training and later attend our MEAL 10-day course (within a 12-month period), you will receive our Certificate in International Development Management (find out more on our website).

Why choose this training course:

Evaluation has the power to be a lens that transforms the way we see the world. As evaluators, as people, we wear many lenses that shape what we see and how we focus our vision. Our theme Through the Lens invites you to think about how our lenses help us to reflect on different ways of knowing to inform our theory and practice; to refract our knowledge and learning in ways that enable us to embrace diversity in our communities; as well as to refocus on the future and deliver evaluative insights that resonate.

Theme: Rising to Challenges

The Evidence and Implementation Summit is one of the world's leading conferences focused on intersections between research, policy and practice – with the goal of improving lives globally.

Hosted by CEI, Monash University, and BISI, the Summit will share the latest advances, case-studies and results across the full spectrum of evidence synthesis and translation, evaluation and implementation science.

Our 8-week online Project Monitoring Techniques course brings together tried and tested techniques to design relevant Real-Time Monitoring systems for adaptive projects and programmes. By learning how data and information can help make evidence-based decisions, staff will have the enthusiasm to gather, analyse and use information in their projects while providing quality ongoing formative evaluation for organisation policy makers.

How does one make sense of this new digital data, utilizing innovative methods while adhering to rigorous evaluation protocols? This workshop provides a thorough grounding in developing a robust M&E approach for digital projects and revising existing workflows in response to the unique digital environment. Participants gain insights into data analysis for large digital datasets and discuss how to incorporate these techniques in programmatic Evaluations.

The What Works Global Summit is the largest event of its kind, bringing together researchers, leaders in evidence-based decision-making and practitioners to share the latest evidence-synthesis research, research methods and practice strategies for improving the lives of individuals, families and communities worldwide.

The 2023 Global Development Conference theme is ‘Biodiversity and Sustainable Development'. Mainstreaming biodiversity is no longer a luxury but an urgency.

The conference proposes to address the following thematic blocks:

It is not easy to gauge and communicate what a program or activity has really meant to the lives of the participants involved. Those best positioned to explore and convey these messages are the participants themselves – they are trusted sources and have first-hand experience of impacts and outcomes.

What is institutionalisation of evaluation in the public service, why is it important in public policy and how to institutionalise evaluation systems within the public service? The workshop explores evaluation policy, approaches to build capacity to supply and demand evaluations, evaluation standards, and approaches to ensuring use of evaluation. Participants learn from case studies of different countries and explore ways to implement in their own countries.
