Research and Program Evaluation Office

Program evaluation research is an important and sometimes undervalued task. Campus conflict resolvers should consider early on the potential benefits of doing program evaluation as part of their core activities.

Do you wish to start or expand a conflict resolution program on your campus?  Do you know if the service is needed?  Who should you target?  If you already have a program in place do you know whether things are being implemented as planned?  How many people do you serve with your conflict resolution program?  Are people satisfied with the results?

This section of our site is intended to address these types of questions and concerns in a practical and straightforward manner.

See our listing of Helpful Evaluation Resources and Tools.
