About this learning event

At this blended learning initiative, we will examine tools (Key Performance Indicators - KPI) for monitoring the progress of implementation of structural reform measures. We will combine outcome indicators with other data and information to analyse the results of realization of structural reforms and provide examples of how to assess the progress of structural reforms using KPIs and prepare clear and structured reports. 

During the initiative. we will also involve participants in a guided peer discussion where they will review the KPIs used in the Economic Reform Programmes (ERP) of different countries. The event contents will be based on the Manual for KPI Selection and Monitoring Process. Participants will reflect on the usefulness of the Manual, and the received feedback will be used to improve the Manual.

•    Online course (Nov 7-24), where participants will get initial insights into KPI manual. Online part will include up to three webinars and in total require approximately 8 hours of learning.
