Evaluation
Evaluation is a multi-faceted program of work that addresses:
- the development of the practical skills and tools needed for workers and organisations to undertake program and training evaluations;
- the development of innovative and inclusive models of evaluation for addressing complex multi-faceted AOD projects and programs targeting Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) and Indigenous populations;
- and the evaluation of specific projects and programs concerning work-place development in the AOD field.
