Evaluation 2009 Call for Proposals

Deadline: Friday, March 20, 2009

The American Evaluation Association invites evaluators from around the world to attend its annual conference to be held Wednesday, November 11, through Saturday, November 14, 2008 in Orlando, Florida. We are fortunate to be at the world class Rosen Shingle Creek Resort, providing us with a beautiful venue and context for learning from one another as well as building in some time for relaxation and fun. AEA's annual meeting is expected to bring together approximately 2500 evaluation practitioners, academics, and students, and represents a unique opportunity to gather with professional colleagues in a supportive, invigorating, atmosphere.

The conference is broken down into 41 Topical Strands that examine the field from the vantage point of a particular methodology, context, or issue of interest to the field as well as the Presidential Strand highlighting this year's Presidential Theme of Context and Evaluation. Presentations may explore the conference theme or any aspect of the full breadth and depth of evaluation theory and practice.

Next Steps:

• Go to the Evaluation 2009 website
• Review the Frequently Asked Questions about proposal submission
• Explore the types of sessions that may be proposed
• Go directly to the proposal submission forms
• Consider proposing an extended workshop to precede or follow the conference

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the AEA office for assistance in developing and submitting your proposal. We look forward to seeing you in Orlando!
