Coached Intensive: MEAL for Humanitarian and Development Professionals
Thu, 19 Feb 2026 13:24:54 +0000
Coached Intensive: MEAL for Humanitarian and Development Professionals
Coached Training with 5 Live Zoom Sessions | 20 – 24 April 2026
Track progress, demonstrate impact, and ensure accountability through effective data collection and analysis systems.
This coached intensive equips you with practical tools to design MEAL systems that track progress, demonstrate results, and drive adaptive management. You'll develop data collection skills and create feedback mechanisms that ensure an integrated MEAL practice, leading to more responsive programming and decisions based on evidence.
In live sessions, you'll work directly with Neil Kendrick (25+ years experience) on your actual projects—ask questions, troubleshoot real challenges, and build frameworks you'll use immediately. Walk away with the confidence to lead MEAL without needing a dedicated specialist.
Who This Is ForProgram managers, coordinators, and M&E officers in NGOs, UN agencies, and local organizations who want to strengthen their MEAL practice—whether you're building systems from scratch or improving what you have.
What You'll LearnMEAL Foundations and Monitoring
Understand the core principles of MEAL systems and master monitoring fundamentals. Learn to design indicators, develop monitoring frameworks, and establish data collection systems that track progress effectively and inform decision-making.
Evaluation Design and Implementation
Design and conduct meaningful evaluations that generate actionable insights. Develop evaluation questions, select appropriate methodologies, and create evaluation plans that assess impact, effectiveness, and sustainability of interventions.
Accountability in Practice
Build accountability mechanisms that strengthen stakeholder trust and program transparency. Learn to engage communities in feedback processes, establish complaint mechanisms, and ensure programs are responsive to beneficiary needs and concerns.
Learning and Adaptive Management
Transform data and insights into adaptive program improvements. Master techniques for facilitating learning sessions, documenting lessons learned, and creating knowledge management systems that drive continuous improvement and innovation.
Integration and Application
Synthesize all MEAL components into a cohesive system for your context. In the final session, we consolidate your learning through review and action planning. You then submit your assignment for personalized feedback.
How It WorksThis is a coached intensive — each day you work through structured video lessons and exercises, then join a live Zoom session where we tackle your real challenges together. Five focused days, one cohesive MEAL system.
Live sessions: 90 minutes | 10:00 UTC
Between sessions, expect around 3 hours of self-study — video lessons, reflection tasks, and applying concepts to your own project context.
What's Included- 5 live Zoom sessions with expert coaching
- Full self-study course — lifetime access
- 2 bonus courses: MEAL Under Pressure + Planning for MEAL
- Focused assignment with personalized video feedback
- Certificate of completion
Investment: $500 | Limited spaces
What Participants Say"I now understand MEAL in depth and can apply it to projects without needing specialized staff. The coaching gave me confidence to handle both qualitative and quantitative indicators and data analysis independently."
Médecins Sans Frontières
"Neil taught me to design logical frameworks and indicators to track long-term impact of our SDG projects. I've built skills in data collection and analysis and can now embed MEAL throughout our project cycle for strategic decision-making."
