Whether you’re seeking to improve service quality, meet accountability demands, fulfil accreditation requirements, or influence policy, this book equips you to conduct evaluations that are credible, useful, and grounded in everyday professional contexts. More than just a technical manual, it fosters a reflective mindset—one committed to learning, integrity, and positive change.
