Evaluation and Research
Regional Training Academy Coordination Project
Evaluation and research are integral to CalSWEC's projects and activities. Research staff promote and engage in evaluation and research throughout the process of program and curriculum development.
- A national leader in the evaluation of human services training, CalSWEC has developed California's Child Welfare Training Evaluation Strategic Plan 2009-2012, a common approach to evaluation that can be used to evaluate child welfare training across the state.
- The RTA Coordination Project annually sponsors the National Human Services Training Evaluation Symposium, a unique forum for training evaluators from around the country to present and discuss training evaluation issues. In 2003 CalSWEC received a Special Recognition Award from the National Staff Development and Training Association for this symposium.
- CalSWEC periodically sponsors applied research and evaluation projects related to child welfare practice and outcomes. The research is conducted either by CalSWEC staff, or by researchers at partner universities with assistance and oversight by CalSWEC. To view the latest reports, click here.
