The early-bird registration period is over and some 400 people have already registered for the 2025 CES virtual conference. There is still time to register, until May 9th, 2025. Given that the conference opens on May 12. Given a strong attendance, there will also be plenty of opportunities to network and make connections – more on this next week.
For your convenience and to ease everyone’s life at the conference, C2025 has created a series of guidance documents for different roles, such as an introduction to PheedLoop, the conference app, and advice for presenters, session hosts, etc. This is in addition to conference participation guidelines which codify the rules of engagement for participants.
The theme of the conference “Doing Good (In) Evaluation: the Basics and Beyond” will challenge delegates to think deeply and critically about (1) the things they take for granted as ‘evaluation basics’; (2) to go beyond those basics by getting creative, in pushing the field forward, and (3) thinking about transforming evaluation practice—and how, why, when, and where we can most effectively do this.
