A free, self-paced e-learning course, developed by Stats4SD for IOM. The course aims to familiarise participants with impact evaluations and prepare them to support their planning and implementation for return and reintegration programmes. It also includes expert perspectives on the unique challenges of conducting an impact evaluation in the context of return and reintegration programmes.

This course is aimed at reintegration practitioners and monitoring and evaluation (M&E) staff working in a return and reintegration context. This includes:

• Staff with monitoring and evaluation responsibilities.
• Users of  monitoring and evaluation information products.
• Potential commissioners or users of impact evaluations.
• Potential managers of impact evaluations.
• Individuals who are already involved with the implementation of impact evaluations, who wish to understand the specifics of working within the return and reintegration context.

This training course will prepare you to support the planning and implementation of an Impact Evaluation study for a return and reintegration project or programme. Through seven self-paced modules, you will become familiar with the fundamental concepts and methods of impact evaluations and develop a ‘real-world’ understanding of the challenges and opportunities of evaluating the impact of return and reintegration assistance with robust methodologies.

You will need to register for a (free) account on the IOM e-campus website to access the course.
