Impact Evaluation

This initiative addresses common constraints and acute limitations to robust, quality and effective visitor research and impact evaluation (e.g. Jensen 2014).

Arts & Culture Benchmarking

This project enables comparative impact evaluation at a regional, national and global level. This is accomplished using innovative research technology, standardized systems for comparative benchmarking and a focus on audience experiences and education impacts.

Comparisons are based on standardized measurement tools to understand visitor profiles, experiences and outcomes relating to arts and culture education. This project uses benchmarking to aid in discovery and distribution of best practices.

Modern Technology:
Data Collection, Analysis and Reporting

The mission and objectives are enabled with innovative technology that automates the process of data collection, aggregation and processing, sector-level analysis, and evaluation reporting. Audience data are analyzed automatically within a project dashboard that provides each institution with benchmark scores for its comparison groups.
