Diploma in Public Policy and Program Evaluation

Carleton’s accredited Public Policy and Program Evaluation diploma prepares students for roles as evaluators and evaluation managers. The program prepares students to understand the various approaches and traditions of evaluation, methodologies and techniques within each of these, and to think critically about evaluation use and design. Participants will better understand where evaluation fits in the broader contexts of public policy, strategic management and accountability and appreciate how to make more effective use of evaluation.
