Summary: | After years in preparation, we are pleased to introduce this special issue of Evaluation and Program Planning that focuses on evaluator education, a topic that we believe is of considerable importance to the field’s future. Before describing the issue’s content, let us ground the articles in two ways: by examining the larger context within which evaluator education finds itself, and by briefly explaining who we are and describing how the issue came into being.
•This issue is grounded in evaluation practice, higher education, and evaluator education itself.•Our present context raises multiple questions for evaluator education.•This issue evolved from multiple conversations that began in 2014 and continued for five years.•We acknowledge the limitations of this collection, but hope it stimulates additional research. |
