<H2>About This Session</H2>
This session is focused on measurement and evaluation for nonprofits. The board’s role and legal obligation for a nonprofit organization is to oversee the management of the organization and ensure that the organization fulfills its mission. To do that, board members need to understand the basics of measuring nonprofit impact, which is quite different than how the business world tracks its progress.
Increased emphasis on program evaluation and performance measurement have affected how nonprofit organizations design programs, measure effectiveness and communicate outcomes to stakeholders. Increasingly, nonprofit leaders are seeking to evaluate the effectiveness of their programs, both in response to funder demands and to improve services to clients. This lecture will discuss why we need to evaluate programs, the elements and obstacles of program evaluation and what board members need to know about evaluation to be effective stewards. 
In the session, you’ll gain an understanding of evaluation concepts, have a chance to try on your learning,  and depart with a list of suggested resources to help you go deeper into specific topics.
