Evaluation capacity building (ECB) is a growing area reflecting an ever increasing expectation of evidence that programs are achieving their goals. ECB is also reflective of the shift towards participatory evaluation methods. A logic model is used to integrate existing theory and frameworks. The broad-based synthesis method used derives from the evaluation syntheses developed at the Government Accountability Office and includes qualitative and quantitative data from the empirical ECB literature

This is the first section of a panel titled "Building and Evaluating a System Based Approach to Evaluation Capacity Building" which presented the recent work by the Cornell Office for Research on Evaluation under the direction of Bill Trochim. This section specifically provides an overview of the Systems Evaluation Protocol (SEP) and highlights how the systems evaluation approach embodied in the SEP helps partner organizations build evaluation capacity and produce high-quality evaluation plans. #ResearchonEvaluation #capacity #building #2009Conference #Planning #research #OrganizationalLearningandEvalCapacityBuilding #evaluation #SystemsinEvaluation #on

In her 2007 presidential address to AEA, Hallie Preskill asked, "how do we build the capacity of individuals, teams, and organizations to think evaluatively and engage in evaluation practice?" Evaluative thinking (ET) is mentioned with increasing frequency in the evaluation literature--especially in the evaluation capacity building (ECB) literature--but often only fleetingly

This paper presentation analyses evaluation approaches and methods that are typically used to assess the impact of development training at several levels: impact on individuals’ evaluation knowledge, professional practice, and institutional change. The authors discuss different types of evaluation approaches that use direct measures

The majority of US federal government evaluations are conducted by external evaluators. However, conducting evaluations is just one of the roles that external evaluators can play to help expand and build evaluation capacity in federal agencies. This presentation focused on some of the challenges of involving contractors within the federal evaluation framework, and offer potential solutions to those challenges. In particular, the presentation focused on the role that external evaluators can play in building evaluation capacity. The presentation addressed four specific areas: facilitating education of federal staff (internal evaluators and program staff) through education and training; addressing resource issues by expanding federal capacity to design and conduct evaluations; help ensure continuous use of evaluation methods and results; and developing increased evaluation capacity by expanding skill sets and methodologies available to support federal evaluation and accountability
