The focus areas include learning to enhance practices, learning what works and why, learning from others, and learning about evaluation users and uses. This year’s conference also includes over 40 professional development workshops, 700 presenters, and a community of more than 3,000 evaluators. Be sure to visit the AEA website to view all programing and register for the event.
