Learning

Monitoring and Evaluation

Training in indicators, evidence and learning for social projects.

Why this matters now

M&E training fails when it teaches the form before the discipline. We train M&E professionals to build logframes that survive scrutiny, indicators that mean something operationally, and reports that pass donor audit on first review. Participants leave with the discipline, not just the templates.

What this includes

Logframe and theory of change

The architecture, the chain of evidence, the prioritisation discipline.

Indicators

SMART, measurable, defensible — the test of an indicator is whether it can be defended to a donor under cross-examination.

Data collection

Survey design, interview protocols, ethics, data hygiene, sample integrity.

Reporting

Donor-grade narrative, financial reconciliation, audit pack discipline.

What you receive

Curriculum

Certified instructor, workbooks, OECD-DAC primer.

Real artefacts

Each participant leaves with logframe, indicator set, and a sample report on a real project.
