Gleaning the Meaning: Evaluation Basics Webinar
WEBINAR: October 8, 2010, 2:00-3:30 Eastern Time $89/individual or $150/site.
Do you cringe when a funder requires you to submit an evaluation of your project? This webinar, taught by Funding Exchange President/CEO Sharon Gherman, is a “connect the dots” orientation to evaluations. We’ll answer the most common questions about evaluating projects; introduce terms used by evaluators and explain in English what they mean; provide guidelines to help you decide whether you can perform the evaluation with your own staff or need to hire an evaluator; what to do when you decide to perform your own evaluation; and how to use evaluation results to get more out of your projects.
