- where and how to secure adequate data/material for evaluation
- how to apply the chosen evaluation approaches to a non-formal learning context
- ICT-related techniques with regard to assessment and evaluation
It is helpful to have an overview about current youth research and of how to use results. + -
Youth workers benefit from knowledge about:
- how to adjust the dissemination and use of results accordingly
- current research which can support the evaluative process
