Evaluation Planning

We work with clients to decide what service or combination of services would best fit their needs. We provide three types of evaluations – formative, summative, and participatory. We also provide technical assistance to enable clients to conduct their own evaluations.

Considering each evaluation’s purposes and budget, we work with you to identify appropriate data sources and analytic methods to provide credible findings.

We usually recommend collecting both qualitative and quantitative data for each project. Qualitative data might include interviews, focus groups, observations, case studies, or participant portfolios. Quantitative data could include attendance records, survey responses, test scores, or student transcripts.
