Measuring the Impact of your Organisation - Sept 2023

12–13 September 2023

Do you truly know the value of the good work that your charity does? Could you be doing more to demonstrate the impact that your work has to funders, donors and the public at large?

This training course will give attendees the knowledge and tools to be able to begin building an impact measurement framework for their organisation. Theoretical, practical and discussion sessions will ensure that trainees come away with a knowledge of how to apply the concepts of social impact measurement and an understanding of how measuring impact can benefit their organisation. Day 1 will focus on impact measurement methodology with Day 2 providing real examples and an opportunity for personal reflection.
