What We Do at Advocacy School
Though most of its services and “deliverables” are tailored to the specific needs of client organizations, the following is a representative list of the sorts of subject matter which have been made available through both “live-in-person” workshops and “virtual” presentations.
Samples of training modules
In all of its work related to skills-development and capacity-building, Advocacy School puts substantial emphasis on measuring and evaluating the outputs, outcomes and change in effectiveness of its individual and institutional clients and what they have gained through our work on their behalf.
Our practice of starting every major new client training or capacity-building initiative with a “needs assessment” sets the tone of our approach going forward to realize meaningful results from our work. Both “in-class-written” and “online post-workshop” participant evaluations, assessments and suggestion for improvements, are deployed, all in support of a client’s objective to improve its performance and that of their members/employees in advancing their collective interests by skillfully crafting policy for their own community, facilitating public awareness and mobilization of support.
Depending on the venue and clients’ particular preferences and requirements, the overall approach and subject matter of training sessions and strategic workshops varies.
