Practical Steps for Effective Program Evaluation
Program evaluation is a critical process for assessing if a program is being implemented as intended and achieving its desired results. This webinar frames evaluation as an iterative, adaptive practice rather than a rigid sequence, emphasizing flexibility through the principle of “start anywhere, follow it everywhere.”
This session will examine key steps, including defining the scope of evaluation, forming teams, selecting appropriate designs, and aligning measurement strategies with program objectives. The discussion will compare formative, outcome, and developmental evaluation approaches, highlighting practical implications and resource considerations.
This webinar is free for members and $59 for non-members. There are no CE’s available for this webinar
