The Claremont Evaluation Center is pleased to bring you this longstanding series which provides practical and theoretical training in evaluation and applied research through one-day workshops, taught by academics and practitioners from across the globe.  For more information about the Claremont Evaluation Center, click here.

Previous years have consistently brought hundreds of participants to Claremont from across the globe, representing an exciting cross-section of the private and public sectors. In recent years, we have expanded our offerings to provide extensive online participation to make these workshops even more accessible.  This year, almost all the workshops will be offered online as well as in-person!

The workshops will take place at Claremont Graduate University in the Ron W. Burkle Family Building. The Burkle Building is located at 1021 N. Dartmouth Ave, Claremont, CA 91711. Each morning begins with a brief group session in room Burkle 16, adjacent to the Registration Booth.

Parking is free in the parking lots located on College Ave & 8th St, Dartmouth Ave & 9th St, and between College & Dartmouth on 11th St. Street parking is also available during the workshops.  Click here for more information.
