The 7-Day Monitoring and Evaluation Program
This program includes all I wish I knew about M&E before I started my career." Elvira Beracochea, M.D. MPH.
In 2008, MIDEGO is honored to present a new edition of the 7-Day M&E Program, the program that gathers the over 200 years of M&E collective professional experience of the MIDEGO team in just seven days! Like the 7-Day MPH Program (Margo, link to page please!), the 7-Day M&E Program is a complete system to start to succeed every day and build longterm sustainable success!
If you are pressed for showing results or need better progress information to make decisions about how to manage your public health or development program or project, try the 7-Day M&E Program. If you are looking for ways of designing a better M&E component of your project or if need to rapidly improve an existing one, try the 7-Day M&E program yourself or better yet, have all your team participate! Everyone needs to collect useful health information and learn to use to improve the results of a health service or program.
The Program
Measure it or forget it! That is the simple philosophy behind the 7-Day M&E Program. If you cannot show your work is making a difference, your work is in vain. Learn to design and use the Value-Added Analysis, the Health Scorecard and other tools to measure your progress in public health and make decisions about how to improve your programs.
Have information to show your patients, government and donors the return on their investment in health and why you need increased funding to do more! M&E information is essential to sustain your work and keep improving and expanding your public health or development program or project!
Learn from Claudia's story about how she uses M&E information to show her government and donors the results she got with the grant they gave her and to convince them they should increase funding to scale up her project!

How it works
Like all our coaching programs, the 7-Day M&E Program is available as a live workshop or an online program.
In the online program, every day you log in at MIDEGO's Virtual Learning Center" and read online or download your lesson, and do other activities. Or if you prefer the email-based option, you will receive an email message with something to read, to think about, to write and do. After you complete your assignment, you send it back to 7-Day M&E Coach who will give you feedback and ask you questions to help you reflect on your next action step. Besides unlimited email access, you will have two 30-minute individual coaching sessions with your 7-Day M&E Coach on the phone or Skype after day three and day seven. You will also receive your diploma after you complete all seven assignments, including an M&E Action Plan. The program explains all the technical words you need to know and like our other online program it is the ONLY with a money back guarantee. If after 7 days you are not satisfied, MIDEGO will return your fee! You cannot fail!
