Description

Based on a recently completed needs assessment that defined a logic model identifying the outcomes that are important to determine organizational success, the museum will initiate a process to build its evaluation capacity and create a culture of impact evaluation. The museum will establish a staff evaluation team to work with an external consultant who will create a summative evaluation instrument to assess impact objectives; train staff and volunteers in data collection and documentation; and implement an evaluation process to understand the museum's impact performance, creating a baseline for future comparison. The project will include two evaluation cycles, ensuring that staff are trained and prepared to continue the process independently without external supervision.
