Impact - Monitoring and Evaluation

Demonstrate the Financial Value of Your Work


Description
This course will look at different ways to demonstrate the financial value of your work, focusing on Social Return on Investment (SROI) as a mechanism for demonstrating your value in financial terms. The course covers the pros and cons of undertaking an SROI analysis, and the skills, data, and steps involved in generating a forecast or evaluative SROI analysis.
