Trainer Tips
- In running an EHA training, there is real value in bringing together evaluators, managers/ commissioners of evaluations and users of evaluations. The different perspectives and experience that each brings enriches the training and enhances the learning opportunities amongst participants. (However, it would still be feasible to use these training materials for a course targeted at any one of those different roles).
- With 2 facilitators a group can contain up to 25 participants – to permit the course to be as interactive as possible, this number should not be exceeded.
- The training programme is designed to be interactive and experiential. Asking participants to bring their own case studies to the course provides a very valuable opportunity for participants to apply their learning directly and immediately to a ‘real life’ situation. It is also an opportunity for the trainers to select from the proffered case studies to ensure a range of different contexts e.g. natural disaster vs conflict related, multi-agency vs single agency, UN vs NGO vs donor government. A specimen letter inviting participants to bring case studies can be found on the next page.
- The structure for this 3-day training programme is based on four 1 hour 40 minute sessions per day. During the final session of each day, participants work in small groups on the selected case studies.
- It is important to build in ‘closure’ time at the end of the course, for the course evaluation but also to give participants space to reflect on how they are going to use the course materials and learning they have gained.
