AEA Evaluator Competencies Crosswalk of Developed Competency Documents

Evaluator Competencies Crosswalk of Developed Competency Documents (August 2015)

"In 2015 the AEA Board of Directors appointed a Task Force to develop a set of evaluator competencies for the association. The membership of the American Evaluation Association has previously endorsed three documents that have contributed to the professionalization of our field:

• The Joint Committee’s Program Evaluation Standards, currently in their 3rd edition (2011, http://www.jcsee.org/program-evaluation-standards-statements)
• AEA’s Guiding Principles for Evaluators (revised in 2004, http://eval.org)
• AEA’s Cultural Competence Statement (2011, http://eval.org)

The proposed competencies will be the fourth such document. Working over the course of the spring and summer 2015, the Task Force reviewed existing sets of general and subject-specific competencies for program, policy, and personnel evaluation to identify foundational competencies necessary to the diverse evaluation practice of AEA members. What follows is a crosswalk of evaluator competencies." (Page 1)
