Overview
Measuring the Impact of Policy
Policymakers and regulators invest significant resources in generating policy, yet evaluation is consistently the stage that gets cut short. Without robust monitoring and evaluation, it is impossible to know whether an intervention is working, where it is falling short, or how to improve it. The result is wasted public money, missed opportunities, and policy that repeats its own mistakes.
This three-day programme gives you the practical tools and frameworks to change that. You will learn how to design an evaluation plan from the ground up, select the right methodology for your context, and translate findings into actionable insights that inform the next phase of policy. Whether you are overseeing an evaluation for the first time or looking to sharpen an existing approach, the course equips you to make evidence count.
By the end of the training, you will be able to:
- Design a structured evaluation plan aligned to your policy objectives
- Select and apply the most appropriate impact measurement methodology for your context
- Identify and overcome the most common barriers to effective monitoring and evaluation
- Engage stakeholders meaningfully throughout the evaluation process
- Present findings in a way that drives decisions, not just reports
This programme is delivered in an interactive cohort format, giving you the opportunity to work through real evaluation challenges alongside peers from across government, regulation, and the public sector.
