The SOUL Record
Measuring the Immeasurable

 
What is The SOUL Record?
The SOUL Record is a flexible toolkit offering an effective method of measuring progression in soft outcomes e.g. confidence, self-esteem and problem solving. It can also be used diagnostically to help the individual identify changes they want to make.
Who is it for?
The SOUL Record is currently used by many different types of organisation from small voluntary groups to county councils, including schools, children’s centres, community groups, health schemes and mentoring organisations.
 
It is best used for one to one sessions, but can also be used with some groups. The SOUL Record is suitable for projects where there is face to face contact with individuals over a period of time, such as a course or support programme.
 
It was designed to be used with a wide variety of people and there are sections suitable for adults, young people and children with the latter two mapped against the five outcome areas of Every Child Matters.

News

The SOUL Record is currently being reviewed and adapted to a more streamlined online format with the revised version expected to launch in early 2014. The new version will absolutely maintain the core content and integrity of the current paper version but will include new areas whilst enabling CCN to ensure quality and collate feedback.

We are keen to update the SOUL Record in order to provide an effective product to measure and record Soft Outcomes. The views and expertise of SOUL Record users are important to us and will support us to deliver a product relevant to the needs of your organisation. With this in mind we would be grateful if existing SOUL Record users complete a short online questionnaire accessible through the link below:

In the meantime CCN is prepared to negotiate the training and hard copy price for the current SOUL Record and we are also able to provide half day support workshops for organisations looking to update their current understanding. To find out how we can meet your current needs, please contact sarah.taylor@ccn.ac.uk
