Welcome to the NEFE Financial Education Evaluation Online Toolkit!

This online evaluation toolkit has been designed to help financial educators understand evaluation concepts and efficiently apply them to their educational programs so they can document the impact their programs have on students. Measuring the success of a program through documenting its impact is essential for financial educators to ensure that financial education programs meet the needs of their students and to secure support from stakeholders.

The evaluation toolkit consists of two main parts:

• an evaluation manual (available in hard copy and online formats) covering basic program evaluation concepts, example evaluation instruments, and instructions on how to fully utilize the evaluation toolkit
• an easy-to-use evaluation database containing evaluation templates and forms for several different types of program formats

To make the database as simple to use as possible, a "Help" link is located in the upper right-hand corner of the screen throughout the database. This links directly to the relevant sections of the manual.

To use the NEFE Financial Education Evaluation Online Toolkit, click the "Continue" button to the left and follow the instructions.
