Join our second session in the ‘How to evaluate’ training series, where you’ll delve into the intricacies of implementation and process evaluation (IPE). Using TASO’s IPE guidance, this session will equip you with the tools to assess why an intervention works, for whom, how, and in what context.

During this session, you will learn about key IPE concepts:

  • How to evaluate whether an intervention was implemented as planned.
  • Identifying the key elements of an intervention that contribute to its success or failure.
  • Establishing whether the assumptions and mechanisms underpinning the theory of change hold true.
  • Designing an IPE plan using TASO’s IPE framework, tailored to your specific programme.
  • Introducing essential skills and techniques for data collection and analysis in implementation and process evaluation.
  • By the end of the training, you will have the foundation of an IPE framework, including a set of research questions, measures, and a basic timeline.

Who should attend?

  • Anyone interested in conducting an implementation and process evaluation (IPE).
  • Practitioners or managers responsible for developing access and participation plans (APPs) or evaluations for widening participation or student success programmes.
  • Evaluators in higher education.
  • Relevant for third-sector representatives interested in best practice evaluation methods.

Why attend?

  • Targeted learning: Gain a deep understanding of how to develop an IPE using TASO’s IPE guidance. You will work directly on your own IPE plan throughout the workshop, with personalised guidance and support from experienced facilitators.
  • Professional development: Learn to conduct effective implementation and process evaluations, ensuring your interventions are evidence-based and impactful.
  • Benefit for your institution: Create an outline IPE plan that you can further develop with your team, helping to improve the success of your interventions.
  • Networking opportunities: Connect with peers across the higher education sector, leading to better collaboration and best-practice sharing.

Note: A solid understanding of the theory of change is required for this session.
