Summary:The final chapter summarizes the content of Parts I and II, addresses issues raised by our critical friends in Chapters 4 and 8, and offers multiple steps that the newly formed American Evaluation Association (AEA) Professionalization and Competencies Working Group may consider exploring when it addresses its three charges.
