Community Brokerage Scotland are pleased to make their Community Brokerage Model Self-Assessment tool available freely online.

The self-assessment tool is for use by any organisation that wishes to develop its approach to align with the community brokerage model as described in the National Brokerage Framework. It helps the organisation measure its progress towards the model by asking specific questions that relate to the community brokerage model and brokerage practice. The tool enables the self-assessor to check the question against what the framework says about that particular topic and to give their response as they see it within their own organisation. Through a useful key and on completion of the questions they can allocate a score to each question. Placing their total score within the scoring table provided they can identify their progress and if they measure red, amber or green towards their goal of being an organisation that uses the community brokerage approach.

This self-assessment tool is not a performance management tool or an evaluation tool to measure impact. The purpose of the tool is to measure progress towards the community brokerage model and to help identify areas where further work is needed in the organisation’s journey.
