Resources for Students and New Professionals

Welcome Graduate Students & New Evaluators!

On this page, you will find resources intended to help you throughout your graduate degree program or if you are a mid career professional transitioning to the field.  This page has four categories: Career Resources, Evaluation Training, Finances, and Finishing School Quickly.  Each category has links followed by parentheses that indicate who that source is intended for.  Some of these resources will redirect you to other websites outside of AEA.  

What is evaluation? Evaluation means different  things to different people. These seasoned  evaluators explain what it means to them in these  YouTube clips:
