Evaluation
Evaluation is a central part of improving the way we work. But in practice, it can be forgotten until a project is underway or even missed off altogether.
Evaluation is an important part of developing a systematic understanding of what we are doing. It can help prove what we’re doing works; but it is equally important as a tool to learn lessons for the future.
What can evaluation do for my business?

- identify problems and weakness so they can be solved
- provide information to aid further development
- secure funding for further development
- identify staff training and development needs
- guide future work
- position your work in relation to current policy, learning and best evidence, and
- build capacity and understanding for future work and evaluation.
