  • Evalu8 for Companies:

    UK legislation (the Code) recommends that listed companies perform formal and rigorous annual self-assessment, and triennial externally facilitated assessment, of its Board. Evalu8 allows companies to report full compliance with the code and develop a culture of meaningful assessment.

  • Evalu8 for the NHS:

    Evalu8 is used widely throughout the country by some of the most forward thinking Trusts. In the ever changing world of the NHS, it is critical for trusts, mental health authorities, ambulance services, to show a willingness and an aptitude when it comes to governance issues and good practice measures. With solid foundations of compliance at the heart of the health services, good practice can filter all the way through to the patients and the service provided. We also aim to reduce costs and increase time efficiency for trusts, by using evalu8 instead of paper based systems.

  • Evalu8 for Education:

    Evaluating your governing board’s effectiveness is good practice but can be extremely time consuming.  Evalu8 has teamed up with NGA to provide an online self evaluation tool based on the 20 questions which gives easy to assimilate feedback and analysis.  In addition the package includes a telephone mentoring session with an NGA consultant in order to discuss the issues with an experienced professional who will ensure that the key areas for development are identified, and will contribute ideas and suggestions for improving governance practice.  For further details go to www.nga.org.uk.
