Description

An evaluation of OPEN SME delivery for Phase II of the programme. The evaluation needs to:

  • Give the MMU team evidence on what OPEN SME content to refresh and/or redesign, and what material could be added to the site.
  • Generate data that is comparable to evaluation data collected to date so that the evolution of OPEN SME can be described and assessed.
  • Assess OPEN SME's integration with other business support services in GM given the website will become separate to other funded business support services.
  • Fill gaps in the knowledge base around how to engage GM SMEs in leadership and management training, and the impact support has on SMEs' economic performance.
