This practical workshop gives you a thorough understanding of the principles and practice of RBM. You identify what needs to be put in place or improved in your own organisation’s RBM context and develop a strategy to achieve this.
Why choose this course
This course is relevant for professionals responsible for developing RBM in their organisation or in large complex programmes. Strategic planners, heads of M&E and senior programme managers will find it particularly valuable. It is especially productive if two or more people take part from the same organisation. Awareness of M&E concepts is useful.
What you will learn
The workshop focuses on the needs of participants' own organisations. IMA's model of RBM, developed and refined through years of practitioner experience and applied research, is used to examine the components parts of RBM including:
- logic models and strategic results framework
- integrated monitoring and evaluation
- the use of evidence from monitoring and evaluation in decision-making
- meaningful reporting to key stakeholders.
The connections between the parts are mapped, and key features of a results culture identified, to show how the system should work as a unified whole. Key success factors are explored. Participants then use the model to identify strengths, weaknesses and gaps in their own RBM systems and cultures; and with hands-on facilitation from IMA experts, develop a strategy to address their priorities.
