Alumni Study Groups
Alumni study groups provide regular opportunities for evaluation training participants to work together after the basic or advanced training is complete. These groups developed based on a recognition that evaluation skills need to be practiced if they are to become embedded in participant and organization practices.
The projects highlighted on the right used alumni study groups as a strategy for extending knowledge, keeping staff skills current and maintaining the organization’s investment in evaluation and evaluative thinking.
Alumni study groups incorporated a combination of skill review with participant selected evaluation-related project work.
