The internal and external demands for more regular, more rigorous, and better quality M&E practices require program teams from government agencies to civil society to be better equipped to plan, implement, and oversee a variety of M&E tasks. In some cases the program teams will undertake all of this work. In other cases they will carry out some of it, such as program monitoring, but not have responsibility for other parts, such as evaluations carried out by an independent evaluation body. In order to make sound choices that will result in well planned programs and M&E functions – ideally this should be done at the program design stage – program teams should understand M&E methods and options. Given this, the course aims to expose key M&E approaches to participants who are expected to take a lead role in more systematic M&E use and improved programs, projects, or policies.
Course materials are available in Russian and English.
