The Evaluation Center offers a full range of evaluation services to our clients, including designing and conducting evaluations, integrating qualitative and quantitative analyses, and disseminating findings in a useful way. We have extensive experience providing program evaluation to a wide variety of clients, including K-12 public school systems, non-profit organizations, biomedical research universities, and private professional development programs. All of the programs we evaluate are unique and have their own nuances and specific needs. We strive to provide affordable, tailored evaluations that are rigorous and meaningful to our clients. The Evaluation Center is unique among program evaluation groups because we operate as an autonomous not-for-profit entity embedded within the University of Colorado Denver.
