Greetings Program Leaders!
== Updates this week ==
We are happy to announce the next Learning Module is now available!
"Program Evaluation Basics" [1] provides an overview of the benefits of
evaluation. It also details and provides examples about the different types
of evaluation. The next module currently being designed is on writing good
survey questions. As always, please feel free to reach out to myself or
Jaime if you have questions about the learning modules or comment on the
talk page!
For those of you who missed last week's hangout, the YouTube live stream is
now available [2] as well as the presentation[3]. Please feel free to reach
out if you have any questions about this or any other video available in
the news section of the portal.[4]

*Dear Program Leaders!*
A couple of announcements for the week:
*= Learning Modules =*
We are thrilled to announce that we have begun a new Learning Modules page
where we will be creating various trainings related to Program Evaluation. The
first completed training is a more complete overview on using Wikimetrics.
The second is an overview of Program Evaluation and will be completed this
week, with three others being created soon. Let me know if you have any
questions or leave a comment on the talk page!

*= Virtual Meetup =*
At 4pm UTC March 4th (tomorrow) we are hosting a hangout about developing
and using goals and targets (e.g., SMART goals, benchmarks, outcome chains,
etc.) to set, and monitor progress toward, targeted outcomes for your
program. If would like to join realtime via google hangout, be sure to
leave comment on the google plus event page. You can also view with a
slight delay via livestream (with or without a google account) and submit
questions on #wikimedia-ped on Freenode IRC. Hope to see you there!
