Building on the inputs from existing evaluation courses including self-evaluation and the use of evaluation methods and tools, this one-day course explains the process of analysis in more detail and is designed to help participants consider approaches for examining both quantitative and qualitative evidence. Participants will also consider ways of presenting and reporting their evaluation findings to meet the needs of stakeholders.

The course will include discussion and exercises on:

  • The importance of analysing and using information as part of the self-evaluation process as well as issues commonly encountered
  • The process of analysis; moving from reflection, collation, description and interpretation
  • Quantitative and qualitative analysis, including basic statistics and content analysis
  • Use of software packages, for example Excel and SPSS, to support the analysis process and enhance the presentation of data
  • Dealing with the dual roles of Practitioner/Evaluator - reducing the risks of bias in your self-evaluation and other good practice issues
  • Reporting your evaluation findings, including the format and structure for a report, guidelines on report writing, and creative approaches in disseminating evaluation findings
