Study on Establishing an Evaluation Certification System
9,500,000 yen [Grant Project]
Japan Evaluation Society (JES) (Japan)
Recently, demand for accountability in policies and projects in the fields of development and public welfare has been increasing, and evaluation systems have been introduced and projects have been evaluated to respond to the social demand for accountability. However, there are not enough evaluation experts in Japan. This project aims to study and propose an evaluation certification system for the education of evaluation experts. The project also addresses improving the quality of evaluations and strengthening the recognition of evaluation so that those who receive evaluations are willing to use the evaluation system to improve the efficacy and effectiveness of projects and organizations.
