Presenting Your Data

A short general report such as the Key Findings should meet most of your needs for public dissemination of the results, but different audiences may require different information, types of presentations, and dissemination strategies. You may want to prepare a variety of reports for target audiences. Examples of handouts and presentations are available to assist you in preparing your own presentations. The CHKS staff have created a number of special customized reports, graphic displays, handouts, and other products that can be prepared using your data.

Presentation Tips & Strategies

It is important to involve stakeholders in the presentation and be mindful of your audience. It is key to highlight successes as well as focus attention on areas that might need attention. The Guidebook III: Data Use and Dissemination (pdf) discusses strategies to help you in formulating and conducting your presentation.

"The [CHKS] data we receive in the next round will be invaluable in measuring the success of the programs we are now implementing as a result of the needs identified in the first report. How else will we measure success and seek improvement?"
