Design your own Action Learning Pathway
Our free courses guide you through the evaluation process, using an approach called Action Learning. That means you will do as you learn.
Within each course, you will find several invitations to complete activities or tasks, usually applying what you have just learnt to your own project or organisation. By completing these, you will be working towards a practical and actionable evaluation plan for your organisation and building up an impact portfolio that you can share with the world!
If you need extra help during your journey, do not hesitate to visit our online forum and resources area or join one of our Action Learning Groups.
