This is an 8-week course designed to require 12-hours of active participation and work and is made up of 5 modules. In the first part of the course, participants will become familiar with the Colorado Collective Outcomes and the process of aligning their work to the applicable outcomes. Participants will also spend time developing and/or refining a logic model and theory of change. Next, participants will have the opportunity to develop an evaluation plan for their work and explore a variety of national and state evaluation tools and how to use and adapt them to best work in their individual contexts. Finally, participants will build skills in analysis and understanding data, including various methods for sharing and communicating evaluation findings.

Although learning is self paced, there is a suggested timeline of completing half of the course by midterm. Additionally, participants may join an optional virtual course office hours midway through the course to interact with other participants and/or ask the moderator questions.
