The Youth Program Quality Assessment is a nationally recognized observational measurement tool that provides a valid and reliable way to assess program quality.  Learn how to define quality at the point of service (where young people and adults meet inside a program) and how to use the YPQA tool to assess youth program quality with your staff on your own time.  Participants will learn the difference between observational measures and typical survey evaluation.

– Review the basics of observational method.
– View video to score a YPQA.
– Also available at the Annual Quality Conference.

What you’ll walk away with:
– Deepen your program capacity beyond Quality Matters to continue quality improvement across time and staff.
– Prepare to use the YPQA as a self-assessment method.
