Evaluation
Why is it so important to evaluate learning? Because it can provide an accurate picture of what is working well, what gaps exist, what needs to be prioritized, and even what resources you should invest in for future improvements.
The key to good evaluation is using the right methods and asking the right questions. We offer the following services that can be customized based on your needs, resources, budget, and timelines:
- Prepare an evaluation strategy to assess learning
