No limit but advance sign up required (see contact below)
Signup by: 20-Jan-2004
Single session event
Prereq: none; interest or experience in program development useful.

This course provides a general introduction to the current status of evaluation techniques and methodologies and uses some research examples to show how assumptions and outcomes are not always or even often the same. We will explore basic principles of how to set-up events, service programs, or activities to do effective evaluation and measure real change. Students with programs or personal events in mind will be given time to practice developing measurable goals and evaluation questions. Join us for breakfast!
