SLSU partners with UPLB-OIDHE for training on impact assessment of extension projects

By /

Southern Luzon State University (SLSU), in collaboration with the University of the Philippines Los Baños - Office for Institutional Development in Higher Education (UPLB-OIDHE), conducted a three-day training program from November 6 to 8 aimed at equipping faculty and staff with essential skills for assessing the impact of extension projects

The primary goal of the training was to capacitate the SLSU faculty and staff with ability to conduct impact assessments on extension programs and to build a multidisciplinary team that will spearhead evaluations for completed projects. By developing this in-house expertise, SLSU aims to gain valuable feedback on how its extension initiatives benefit the communities it serves, enabling continuous improvement to further address the needs of the community.
