External Evaluation

 

Increasingly, external evaluation is a critical component in gaining a successful grant award from federal agencies such as National Science Foundation or US Department of Labor. In addition to providing a useful perspective from outside the organization, external evaluation ensures the grant recipient has in place the necessary oversight of funded work.

One of the benefits of external evaluation is that the questions an external evaluator might ask are often the same questions that may most benefit the institution. These include

• Businss plan
• Business processes
• Audit trail
• Clarification of project goals and deliverables
• Fulfillment of stated project intentions and promises
• Verification of project outcomes
• Sustainability
