About Two-Day SROI Practitioner Course
This six half-day Social Return on Investment (SROI) training covers the theory, methodology and practice needed to carry out an SROI evaluation. The training is designed as a step-by-step walk-through of an SROI analysis and aims to equip participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to undertake this methodology themselves. Each participant will be provided with a Guidebook on SROI, which was developed by Social Value International and contains useful information, advice and exercises.
Delivered remotely over the course of six half-days, training is delivered by an accredited trainer and SROI practitioner, who is accredited by Social Value International.
