Once again we opened the year with a fabulous Kick-Off Event. It will be an IPDET year where we create lots of time for the Community – and most imported: host the participative evaluation workshops. In 2022 we had two weeks of On-Site program in Bern, which took place in July. Combined with six online workshops, from April to November. See the overview below:

We are all shocked what is happening right now in Europe! We stand side by side with our Ukrainian friends! The threat to freedom concerns whole Europe!

Evaluation is the result of democratic structures and stands for freedom of speech, transparency, and truth. Let’s do everything possible to support our Ukrainian fellows and our governments to stop the war!

We celebrate 20 years IPDET and received quite a lot wishes and greetings:

The International Program for Development Evaluation Training (IPDET) is a globally recognized and respected player in advanced training in the field of evaluation. The courses and workshops are tailored to the needs of professionals who commission, manage, practice or use evaluations.

This unique training program brings together global expertise in evaluation to build foundational and advanced knowledge and skill in evaluation. Over the past years, more than 4000 professionals received training and joined the global and multi-disciplinary IPDET network.

In 2022 we once again implement an On-Site program! It took place from July 11 to 22 with one week Core Course and one week of workshops.
More information about the 2022 On-Site Program.

The 2022 online workshop program is delivered between May and November. One workshop runs over a period of 5 days. Each workshop has a different schedule depending on the program the respective instructor(s) define. It is important to be able to commit the whole week for the workshop as fulfilling tasks individually and in small groups requires your flexibility. To enable a higher interaction level, all workshops have limited seats.
