2014 Evaluation Success Summary

Always Evaluating Ourselves.

We’ve had another successful year in 2014 but we are always vigilant to make sure those who enter our Programme still receive the high quality experience that we ourselves got when we joined.

In 2014, 449 new members joined our programme. Of these, 324, or 72%, were rated successful by their Primary Coaches (PC), Regional Directors (RD) and verified by Evaluation Auditors (EA) with those who could not be contacted rated not successful. Remarkable in this evaluation period is the very high success of two new Regions, Middle East and India, showing success rates of 88% and 85% respectively. Please click on the 2014 link below for more detailed data keeping in mind that, although we consider 72% to be our true success rate (+/- 5%), this year we are including success rate figures following some procedures done by other Programmes such as:

• Excluding those who could not be contacted from the base total. With this parameter, our audited success would be 82%. 
• Showing the self-assessments of improvement in Quality of Life (QOL) based on comments from Primary Coaches, Regional Directors, and/or Auditors even though they may have been rated unsuccessful by PCs, RDs and/or EAs. With only these parameters, we would show a success rate of 86%, including non-contactables factored into the base total.

For reasons outlined in the introduction when you first clicked into our Success Evaluation link, we emphasize that our true success is the Audited second or third party assessment with non-contactable rated not successful (72%). To reiterate, we do NOT consider self-assessments and/or evaluations done that discard non-responders/non-contactable nor assessments were done during/immediately after a first course to be an accurate indicator of the true success of any programme.
