As funders, one of the most important parts of a grant application is how well the charity can demonstrate the positive difference they are making to the people they support, as we want to know that our funding is going to where it will have the greatest impact.
The OBA (Outcomes Based Accountability) framework and approach helps charities to measure and report how their charity ‘makes a difference’, which will help your charity:
Part one will be a session introducing you to what an OBA approach is and why you would adopt it in your charity. It covers basic OBA principles, expressing and measuring how your charity “makes a difference” and how you can utilise this approach in planning and grant applications. The sessions are suitable for board/committee members, CEOs, charity leaders, and fundraisers and no prior knowledge of OBA principles is required. Session delivered by Mary Curtis, Calmera.
Part two is a workshop where you will gain an insight into the steps that a local charity took to implement and apply the OBA approach to their work and the difference this has made to them and their stakeholders. You will then be helped to get started by applying an OBA approach to one aspect of what you do in your charity. Workshop delivered by Fiona Vacher, CEO, Jersey Child Care Trust.
This course will be delivered in two parts – you will need to book on one of the part one sessions and one of the part two sessions to complete the training.
