Empowerment Evaluation Webinar Workshop

This workshop provides participants with an immersive, hands-on, real-life experience conducting an empowerment evaluation remotely.  In addition to presenting an introduction to the theory, concepts, principles, and steps of the approach, Dr. Fetterman invites you to participate in the process.  He will provide an overview of the approach using case examples from his work at Google, Hewlett-Packard, Stanford School of Medicine, as well as with Native American Tribes, Tobacco Prevention programs in Arkansas, and Squatter Settlement communities in South Arica.  Then you will gain experience conducting an abbreviated empowerment evaluation in real-time.  There is nothing like experiential educational opportunities to crystalize learning.  Dr. Fetterman has served on the faculty of Stanford University, Pacifica Graduate Institute, University of Charleston, California Institute of Integral Studies, and San Jose State University.  He is an engaging educator, providing educational experiences, professional development, and online classes for numerous professional organizations, universities, nonprofits, and governmental agencies. He is a past-president of the American Evaluation Association and the American Anthropological Association's Council on Anthropology and Education.  Dr. Fetterman has received the highest honors in the field of evaluation, the Distinguished Scholar Award from the American Educational Research Association, and the President's Award from the American Anthropological Association.  He is the author of 17 books including  Empowerment Evaluation:  Knowledge and Tools for Self-assessment, Evaluation Capacity Building, and Accountability; Collaborative, Participatory, and Empowerment Evaluation: Stakeholder Involvement Approaches; Empowerment Evaluation in the Digital Villages:  Hewlett-Packard's $15 Million Race Toward Social Justice; and Ethnography: Step by Step.
