Abstract
Workshops are used to explore a specific topic, to transfer knowledge, to solve identified problems,
or to create something new. In funded research projects and other research endeavours,
workshops are the mechanism used to gather the wider project, community, or interested people
together around a particular topic. However, natural questions arise: how do we measure
the impact of these workshops? Do we know whether they are meeting the goals and objectives
we set for them? What indicators should we use? In response to these questions, this
paper will outline rules that will improve the measurement of the impact of workshops.
