What an achievement!

We are only able to capture this information with your help so a huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the evaluation process in 2023. Lets see if we can do even better in 2024!

If you would like to find out more about the impact of the Festival of Archaeology over the last 3 years please download our executive summary below. 

Keep reading to find out how you can best evaluate your event to get as many people as possible involved in archaeology.

Last year our organiser workshop, held by our Evaluation Consultants, Resources for Change, contained useful information about how organisations and individuals can share the data from their events with us to help the CBA secure the future of the Festival. You can catch up on the helpful tips shared in the video recording below.  In 2024 the evaluation workshop will be held in June. 

We have three types of evaluation - one that you as an organiser to complete, one for your participants, and a quick poll for online events.

We also have QR codes that you can use which take you directly to the links. Please add evaluation links to your online presentations (or in the chat at the end of the event). QR codes are provided for the quick poll and the participant survey.

We have created survey posters for you to place around the venue so people with mobile phones can have direct access to the survey.

As part of the evaluation tools there is also a digital poll guidance sheet showing how to collate information.
