|
| | Description | | Join us in Tunis for a one week course on the fundamental issues of monitoring and evaluation (M&E). The course is organized by the World Bank Institute Evaluation Group – with experience teaching over 4,000 participants across 60 countries in the last decade - and taught by the team’s senior evaluation experts. Combining both attention to M&E theory and practical applications of the theory, the 40 participants completing the course will gain knowledge and experience on M&E tools, techniques, and resources needed for planning, organizing, and/or managing programs and projects. The course provides an overview of the theoretical foundations of M&E methods, as well as ample opportunities for practical application of these methods through case studies, course exercises, and group projects. The course will feature equal time for instructor presentations and practical, hands-on sessions for participants to work in teams, discuss problem scenarios, share experiences, and develop M&E tools that they can apply in their own jobs following the course. The Joint Africa Institute (JAI) is the partner institute for the course. The World Bank Institute and the Joint Africa Institute welcome you to spend a week with us in Tunis focusing on building M&E knowledge and skills. | |  |
| | Objectives | | Upon completing the course, the participants will have gained the following: | | Â | - increased knowledge about M&E methods and practices to help them design, implement, and manage their respective M&E responsibilities;
- broadened awareness about M&E resources available to them, from online evaluation tools to evaluation associations;
- new and enhanced skills in developing and using M&E tools, from developing logic models to analyzing qualitative data; and
- a community of course instructors and fellow participants with whom they can communicate about M&E issues long after this course.
