George Bradford on 04 Nov 14" Welcome to the Program Evaluation Standards, 3rd Edition Standards Names and Statements Errata Sheet for the book After seven years of systematic effort and much study, the 3rd edition of the Program Evaluation Standards was published this fall by Sage Publishers: http://www.sagepub.com/booksProdDesc.nav?prodId=Book230597&_requestid=255617. The development process relied on formal and informal needs assessments, reviews of existing scholarship, and the involvement of more than 400 stakeholders in national and international reviews, field trials, and national hearings. It's the first revision of the standards in 17 years. This third edition is similar to the previous two editions (1981, 1994) in many respects, for example, the book is organized into the same four dimensions of evaluation quality (utility, feasibility, propriety, and accuracy). It also still includes the popular and useful "Functional Table of Standards," a glossary, extensive documentation, information about how to apply the standards, and numerous case applications."
