The membership of Washington Evaluators is as diverse as the the industries in which they serve. In celebration, WE has launched a Membership Spotlight campaign to share the professional and personal journeys of our members, learn from each other's experiences and inspire young and/or transitioning specialists.


Please join us in celebrating our members...

This feature shares the story of one of WE's 2021 New Professional Scholarship recipients. The scholarship supports new professionals to integrate state-of-the-art knowledge and information sharing into their evaluation practices and approaches within their respective organizations and/or future practice. The Scholarship is open to new professionals, current students, postdocs as well as new graduates and is offered multiple times throughout the year. Scholars are granted a course offered through the EnCompass Learning Center, as well a complementary WE membership, and more.
