CES, Ontario Chapter (Canadian Evaluation Society)

An opportunity to learn Rapid Impact Evaluation (RIE) directly from Andy Rowe, the developer of the impact-assessment evaluation process.

Rapid Impact Evaluation WorkshopFirst time introductory offer at a one-time membership rate, CES-ON is pleased and privileged to have worked with Andy Rowe to provide a hands-on introduction professional development opportunity - Rapid Impact Evaluation. Rapid Impact Evaluation offers the ability to evaluate the impacts of a program using developmental and formative evaluation as well as summative. RIE triangulates perspectives of three separate groups of experts. Three methodologies that are central to RIE will provide learners with an understanding to apply RIE. RIE is a cost-efficient and quick approach to assessing impacts and does not intrude on design or implementation of the program. Evaluation learners will benefit when they add RIE to their toolbox of evaluation methods. Participants will have virtual hands-on interactive learning opportunities across multiple sessions that are comprised of three 3-hour learning modules and optional two 2-hour learning labs and one final session for questions and discussions about applications. The labs will offer the opportunity to applying the method using real-world cases using RIE methods learned in the modules. Professionals who participate in RIE will:<ul><li>Develop an understanding of principles of RIE and the methods specific to RIE and CE designation credentials. </li></ul>Evaluation learners and those interested in evaluation methods can benefit from this learning opportunity on a leading example of the trend towards more nimble evaluation methods. No prerequisite of skills/knowledge are needed to fully engage in this learning opportunity except your passion for evaluation.
