With a community of over 1,400 members across the country and abroad, we provide a home for people working in the field of evaluation to connect and grow, so they can have a greater impact on everyone they serve.
Elevate your evaluation skills with the CES e-Institute, offering self-paced and facilitated courses designed by evaluators for evaluators.
The CE designation is the only professional title identifying professional evaluators.
The designation means that the holder has provided evidence of the education and experience required to be a competent evaluator. It is a service provided by CES to its members, who may elect to become credentialed on a voluntary basis. It recognizes competence and promotes continuous learning within our community.

There is growing recognition of the complex moral and ethical tensions associated with evaluation practice. However, there are scant evidence-informed frameworks for cultivating ethical awareness or informing ethical deliberation across the evaluation landscape. Thus, we aimed to synthesize research evidence on evaluation ethics, and draw on these findings to develop an evidence-informed evaluation ethics framework.

Les prémices de l’Organisation internationale de coopération en matière d’évaluation datent de 1997. Elles sont le fruit de l’initiative de plusieurs associations nationales d’évaluation qui permettent alors de placer l’évaluation au cœur des débats internationaux.

How about really shaking up the foundations of Evaluation practice? In this initiative, we believe that changing practices begins with changing concepts and understanding contexts, bringing new (and not at all new) ontologies, to change epistemologies and transform methodologies.

Proud of the Profession
I joined CES in 2000 for the networking and professional development opportunities, and to be a part of my professional association.
I have met wonderful colleagues and am proud to be an active member. I am a member of the Credentialing Review Board, I have been a Case Competition Judge, and I am a former winner of the Student Paper Contest. The Credentialed Evaluator (CE) designation in particular gives me credibility and confidence as an independent consultant.
