A square promotional graphic for Laurier’s Program Evaluation Certificate features a curved, asymmetrical layout with a white circular area on the left and a lime‑green border on the right, edged by a vertical blue swoosh. In the upper left corner, the Laurier logo appears in purple capital letters with a yellow maple leaf, followed by “Wilfrid Laurier University” underneath. To the right of this, the multicoloured X‑shaped Program Evaluation Certificate logo is repeated, and beneath it sits the purple CCRLA logo with the stylized leaf or flame and multicoloured hand, accompanied by the text “Centre for Community Research, Learning & Action.” On the left side of the white area, dark blue serif text describes the offering as “A microcredential hosted virtually on Wednesday nights February 11 to July 8, 2026, 5:00PM–6:30PM.” Below this text is a dark blue rounded button with white capital letters that read “REGISTER TODAY!” Along the bottom left edge, there is a line of small black icons and handles: an email icon followed by “CCRLA@wlu.ca,” an Instagram logo and handle “ccrla_wlu,” an X (formerly Twitter) logo with the handle “WLUCCRLA,” and a butterfly icon with the handle “ccrla.bsky.social.” On the lower right side of the graphic, within the white circle, there is a black‑and‑white QR code with the caption “Scan to learn more about PEC” in small black text underneath. The overall design is clean and modern, using white space, bright colours, and institutional logos to emphasize that this is an online microcredential in program evaluation offered through CCRLA at Wilfrid Laurier University. A square digital flyer with a white background promotes the “Program Evaluation Certificate.” At the top left is the program logo: several overlapping diagonal ribbons in teal, gold, purple, and green forming an abstract X-shape, with the words “Program Evaluation Certificate” in green text to the right. At the top right is the purple logo of the Centre for Community Research, Learning & Action (CCRLA), shaped like a stylized leaf or flame enclosing a hand with four multicoloured fingers in red, orange, green, and blue, and the text “CCRLA Centre for Community Research, Learning & Action” beneath it. Below the logos, a paragraph in small black text states that the Program Evaluation Certificate (PEC) is a series of classes over 6 months, hosted virtually on Wednesday nights from February 11–July 8, 2026. The main content is a vertical list of five rounded white rectangles, each outlined in black and paired with a coloured circular icon containing a large two‑digit number. The first item has a blue circle labeled “01” and the heading “Depth and Specialization,” followed by text explaining that the program is entirely focused on program evaluation and offers a more intensive and structured learning experience. The second item has an olive‑green circle labeled “02” and the heading “One‑on‑One Mentorship Consultations,” describing personalized individual consultations with evaluation experts and emphasizing “a real person.” The third item has an orange circle labeled “03” and the heading “Cohort Learning,” explaining that weekly sessions foster peer learning and continuity. The fourth item has a purple circle labeled “04” and the heading “Applied Project,” stating that participants leave with a ready‑to‑implement evaluation plan. The fifth item has a light‑blue circle labeled “05” and the heading “Social Justice Lens,” highlighting the explicit integration of decolonial, anti‑oppressive, and equity‑focused evaluation practices.
