SayPro: Gathering Qualitative Insights on Program Effectiveness

Purpose

This document outlines the process and tools SayPro will use to collect in-depth qualitative feedback from key stakeholders—learners, facilitators, employers, and partners—through surveys, interviews, and focus groups.

1. Stakeholder Groups to Engage

Program Participants (current and past learners)
Facilitators/Trainers
Supervisors/Employers of participants
Community and Implementation Partners
Program Designers and Coordinators

2. Data Collection Methods

Distribution Tools: Google Forms, Microsoft Forms, or SayPro’s LMS.

Sample Questions:

How relevant was the training content to your daily work?
What parts of the program were most or least useful?
Did you feel supported during your learning journey?
What could be improved about the delivery or structure of the training?

b. Interviews

Purpose: Explore individual perspectives and gather deeper insights.
Format: Semi-structured, 20–30 minutes per session (in-person or virtual).
Participants: Selected from diverse roles and regions for balanced representation.

Focus Areas:

Perceived impact on skills and confidence

Format: 60–90 minute moderated sessions with 6–10 participants each.
Types: Separate groups for learners, facilitators, and employers.

Discussion Prompts:

What changes have you observed since completing the program?
Which elements of the training supported or hindered your growth?
How can the program be more inclusive, engaging, or practical?
What post-training support would be most helpful?
