The iSisters Technology Mentoring program evaluation employed a summative evaluation design to monitor the impact of iSisters’ community-based, technology-enabled employment support programs.
The research model was based on a quasi-experimental, mixed methods approach. As such both qualitative and quantitative data were gathered using a web-based exit survey and face-to-face interviews with program participants and partner organizations.
Eight key determinants of the impact of the iSisters’ program were included in the web-based exit survey. In addition, the learner and partner interviews each focused on six key probes to explore the evaluation’s two main questions: i) what was the impact of iSisters’ community-based employment support programs on program participants’ employability and technology skills; and ii) what factors impacted most on building sustainable programs with iSisters’ community-based partner organizations.
