Evaluation: What next?

Fiona Fylan and Beth Fylan, Brainbox Research

Many organisations either commission or carry out evaluation research as part of an ongoing quality assurance programme. For many, however, writing or receiving the report is the end point in the process. This session will look at practical ways that you can maximise the value of the evaluation research that you carry out or commission to make sure that you continually improve your interventions and raise awareness of the work that you do.
