Skill-Building Workshop #764 held on Friday, November 4, from 4:30-6:00 pm in Capistrano A. There is no such thing as a perfect evaluation! Most evaluations are fraught with challenges, yet a thoughtful evaluator can navigate these challenges successfully, preventing some and resolving others as they arise. This workshop was designed to help evaluation practitioners develop a proactive mindset when addressing evaluation challenges. *** Just added the file containing PARTICIPANT INPUT from the workshop. Also added announcement of CDC Asthma Program Evaluation webinars (including recordings of past webinars). *** Initial handouts posted include: (1) a PowerPoint slideset, (2) agenda for workshop and three exercise worksheets, and (3) a handout describing how to access the materials on which the workshop was based. These materials are now available as Module 2 of "Learning and Growing Through Evaluation" on the CDC National Asthma Control Program website at: http://www.cdc.gov/asthma/program_eval/guide.htm. *** Contact Joanne Abed, Battelle Centers for Public Health Research and Evaluation at 703-751-7617 with questions and comments. #OrganizationalLearningandEvalCapacityBuilding #EvaluationChallenges #2011Conference #implementingevaluations
