Webinar Description:

Many of us collect evaluation data.  Sometimes though, it feels like the evaluation data are used to check off a box on some form and the information is not used effectively.  This workshop will focus on the presentation of evaluation data and how the information can be used to tell a story such that the data are used to move a project or activity forward. Some of this comes from how the data are presented, some of this from how and who we share outcomes with.  Recommended practices from the literature will be shared. Examples from actual projects of how data has been used to effect change will be discussed. 

This webinar is hosted by AUCDs Council on Research and Evaluation (CORE).
