Monitoring and Evaluation

overview

Course Overview

The monitoring and evaluation course is designed for Project/program managers. The course teaches basic concepts of managing outputs, outcomes and their impact on project results. This is because the poor management of the outputs and outcomes of projects result in objectives of projects not being realized. The course will teach participants the ten steps to creating and managing results on projects and programs.

We will achieve this by using case study scenarios to develop working systems. We will create activities, outputs, outcomes and see how all these help to achieve the project goal. Participants will be given tasks and assignments. This will ensure that learning takes place.

As the success of a project is dependent on performance, a clear understanding of how to make it work will be needed for professionals in this field. On completion, this course takes you closer to becoming a sought after M&E expert.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the Monitoring and Evaluation course, participants will be able to:

  • Develop and implement a robust monitoring and evaluation framework.
  • Collect and analyze data to track project progress and outcomes.
  • Identify and address challenges and risks that may affect project implementation.
  • Communicate effectively with stakeholders about project progress and results.
  • Use monitoring and evaluation data to inform decision-making and improve project performance.
