NEW Program Announcement – SEEK Award

The Canadian Evaluation Society (CES) and Canadian Evaluation Society Educational Fund  (CESEF) are pleased to launch a new joint initiative — our Student Excellence advancing Evaluation Knowledge (SEEK) Award. The Award is intended to recognize exemplar and diverse student contributions to the advancement of evaluation theory and/or practice. It builds on the previous Student Paper Contest, now inviting a broader array of exceptional evaluation-related projects conducted by students in Canadian post-secondary institutions. The first SEEK intake is March 31, 2010. Candidates must be nominated by their professor.

SEEK Award program details and related application/nomination forms will soon be available on the CES and CESEF websites. In the meantime, any pressing questions about this exciting new program can be directed to programs@evaluation-education.org .

Please share this SEEK Award announcement with other evaluation educators and colleagues.
