In advance of the CES-NCC 5th Annual Learning Event in Ottawa (February 13th, 2018), the Canadian Government Executive published an on line article, “Principled Evaluation: Who Cares?” (January 19, 2018), by CES members Natalie Kishchuk, Wayne MacDonald and Emilie Peter.  Bravo to Emilie, Natalie and Wayne for this important CES outreach effort on a topic that defines our profession. Stay tuned for other CES contributions to the CGE in the months ahead. If you would like further information about submitting an article to CGE, contact Wayne MacDonald from our National Capital Chapter at [email protected].
