Abstract

Knowledge transfer from program evaluators to policy-makers and program decision-makers should not be left to chance. Experiences gained from a multi-site implementation evaluation highlight a number of strategies and techniques which evaluators may employ to increase the likelihood that their findings may be utilized to influence the development of ‘small p’ program polices and procedures. The evaluators in this situation engaged in a number of pre-evaluation activities which both enhanced and protected their ability to transfer knowledge about program implementation to program stakeholders when it became available.
