AI for Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning (MEL) Training
Practical AI training for MEL professionals to improve data analysis, evaluation, reporting, evidence synthesis and decision-making.
About This Training
Artificial Intelligence is changing how Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning professionals analyse data, generate insights and support programme decision-making.
This practical AI for Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning (MEL) Training equips participants with the skills to apply AI across the MEL cycle, including indicator design, data-quality review, qualitative and quantitative analysis, evaluation planning, evidence synthesis and reporting.
The training focuses on practical application rather than AI theory. Participants will learn how to use AI to improve analytical efficiency, strengthen reporting and generate timely insights while maintaining data confidentiality, methodological rigour, human validation and responsible AI practices.
