I can't believe it's already May 19! This process has already connected me with so many wonderful evaluators doing amazing work. I can't wait to review all of the submissions in detail. Hopefully, yours is one of them!
Final call! Don't forget to submit your chapter proposals on the evaluation of evaluation capacity building initiatives for an issue of New Directions for Evaluation! Submit your proposal by 11:59 p.m. on May 19: wmich.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/…

Excited to begin this new project with @MeganLopezPhD I've spent a lot of time thinking about how to best evaluate an ECB initiative. I wish there was an issue of NDE like this for me to read years ago! Maybe you wished for the same. If so, join us in writing it!
Interested in publishing original work about the evaluation of evaluation capacity building initiatives? Find out more about the exciting opportunity to be included in a proposal to New Directions for Evaluation during our March 7 info session: hubs.li/Q01F4RqT0

Did you know the #eval theory TIG created a scavenger hunt for #Eval22?? Every time you hear a session mention eval theory you can fill out a form to be entered in a drawing for some great books! What a great idea!
