About this event

  • Event lasts 7 hours

Are you unsure what to write in the evaluation section of your funding applications? You’re not alone. Many cultural educators feel overwhelmed when it comes to evaluation; what it is, why it matters, and how to actually do it.

This one day beginner’s course is designed especially for those working in cultural education who want to build confidence and clarity around evaluation. Whether you’re a teaching artist, project manager, or part of a cultural organisation, this training will help you understand the basics in a friendly, jargon-free way. You’ll learn what funders are really looking for, how to plan simple evaluation activities, and how to talk about impact without needing specialist qualifications and training.

No prior experience needed, just bring your questions and curiosity!

Let’s take the fear out of evaluation and turn it into a tool that works for you.
