Planning for evaluation Collecting informatio n Analyzing informatio n Taking action
Planning:-  The first step is to understand why we are evaluating aspects of our service and what are we trying to achieve.  1. Most times we will be looking to develop and understanding of our service from perspectives of students and their supporters using our one- stop-shop contact centre and web presence.  2. This should result in actions that improve our service delivery and thus customer experience.  3. You may also undertake evaluation to prove a hypothesis or point.  4. For some the motivation is to improve efficiency which is usually a byword for cost savings.
Collecting information  Some of the information we need for analysis may be readily available; already captured as a by-product of other activities. However, we may have to build new mechanisms to collect the data. Analyzing information  If we have planned, design and collected the data effectively, analysis should flow easily from the discussions that follow. Effective findings, conclusions and recommendations should include both quantitative and qualitative data and common sense reporting to stakeholders.
Taking action We then go about implementing changes arising from the analysis - ‘closing the loop’ by taking action and sharing those actions with stakeholders in the service. This process we have applied to the various evaluation exercises for different stakeholders in the service.
