The purpose of program evaluation is to gain knowledge about a program to determine it’s worth or value and to use that knowledge to inform decisions and future actions. Unfortunately, we often find that team members have conflicting interests and duties to the program that interfere with the collection of appropriate and valid program data. Even with the known benefits and necessity of program evaluation, our experience is that those novice to evaluation do not recognize the value of evaluation and will fail to provide the information necessary for program evaluation. Examples include incomplete data collection forms, incorrect forms, or information filled with fictitious names and demographic data, or team members filling in the evaluation questions themselves rather than ask their questions. Our poster share a snapshot of our multifaceted approach to develop tools and resources to assist in even the most novice team members provide accurate program data for evaluation purposes.
