Introducing an Outcomes Based Accountability Approach for your Charity (AKA how to measure the difference your charity makes)

This course is delivered in two parts:

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.
