Pilot evaluation to assess the impact of eLearning on humanitarian aid work | Final Report

The report ‘Pilot evaluation to assess the impact of e-learning on humanitarian aid work’, is the first of its kind to research the impact e-learning has and enables us to improve e-learning for humanitarian workers and improve aid delivery.

The report has found that humanitarian organisations and aid organisations need to:

1. Ensure that appropriate training is available that will strengthen and support a learner’s experience.
2. Better educate funders regarding the essentiality of supporting and strengthening organisational capacity to manage and coach learning processes.
3. Commit to the individual learning process if transfer of learning is to successfully contribute to changes to the individual learner’s quality of work
4. Ensure greater value of donor support not only by increasing investment but also assuring greater influence by donors to strengthen the sector for training & evaluation.

The need for continued learning has been recognised, and now the humanitarian sector needs to take a consistent approach in training their staff and volunteers.
