Marthe Hurteau, PhD, CE, Isabelle 
Bourgeois, PhD and Sylvain Houle, PhD are publishing L’évaluation de programme axée sur la rencontre des acteurs : Une sagesse pratique (Program Evaluation Focused on the Meeting of Actors: Practical Wisdom) this month with the Presses de l’Université du Québec. Their publication examines the broadening of evaluator competencies that is required in the wake of transformations in evaluative practice. The authors portray a conception of professional practice that incorporates the mastery of strategic and technical aspects. In equal measure it demonstrates wisdom in allowing practice to be flexible, thorough, and careful to provide an assessment acceptable to all stakeholders. The volume looks especially closely at the meeting of actors, a challenge in and of itself, by presenting a range of approaches and experience that encourage parties to come together.
The publication will be available as of October 10. It can be purchased through the website of the Presses de l’Université du Québec:
