Evaluate promotes the goals of the Advanced Technological Education program by partnering with ATE projects and centers to strengthen the program's evaluation knowledge base, expand the use of exemplary evaluation practices, and support the continuous improvement of technician education throughout the nation.
Evaluation of Evaluate
Evaluate uses a combination of internal and external evaluation, along with feedback from our National Visiting Committee and ATE Evaluation Community of Practice Advisory Group to monitor our progress, identify opportunities for improvement, and assess our impact.
External Evaluation
Through a competitive request-for-proposals process, we selected Phillips, Wyatt Knowlton to serve as our external evaluators after our former evaluator, Steve Jurs, retired in June 2010.
Cynthia Phillips, Ph.D., and Lisa Wyatt Knowlton, Ed.D. are the principals for Phillips Wyatt Knowlton, Inc. Learn more about them and their work at www.pwkinc.com.
