Increasing Evaluation Expertise of SMET Professionals

评估员协会提供高质量的短期课程，由国家公认的评估领域专家授课。课程安排允许参与者在一周内参加2-3个课程。这个SGER将通过提供1000美元的学费奖学金来测试SMET专业人员是否可以参与这些课程。由于评估者协会将在今年夏天提供课程，并在秋季再次提供有限的课程，评估方案可以及时做出关于未来规划的决定。

The Evaluators' Institute provides high-quality short-courses taught by nationally recognized experts in the evaluation field. Courses are scheduled to allow participants to take 2-3 courses over the period of a week. This SGER will test whether SMET professionals can be involved in these courses by offering $1000 Tuition scholarships. Since the Evaluators' Institute is providing courses this summer and a limited set again in the fall, decisions about future planning by the Evaluation Program can be made in a timely manner.
