To determine whether a Program or Project is on track, whether timely adjustments can be made, and whether its objectives will be attained successfully, and are sustainable, Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) is necessary. “Best Practice” performance evaluation M&E requires understanding, knowledge and application of a few statistically based tools and techniques.

​​

The Program / Project Monitoring and Performance Evaluation introduces participants to overall program and project performance monitoring and evaluation concepts and processes, as well as enabling the participant to acquire “hands-on” skill using statistical tools and techniques with templates especially designed for collecting data, analyzing and reporting results.

 

The course is presented in two parts:

• Initially, an overview of the planning, monitoring and evaluation process is presented, and key terminology, definitions, and tools are reviewed and discussed.

• Subsequently, instruction in, and direct “hands-on” application with appropriate tools and techniques in a team workshop mode provides participants an opportunity to develop some skills in target setting and performance evaluation, as well as the design and analysis of statistical sample surveys.
