Welcome to those of your planning to attend the November 2011 Evaluating Community Impact workshop in Kitchener.  We've started a group - call ECI Nov 2011 Alumni and we invite you to join us.  We will be using this space to post details about the workshop and some interesting resources you might want to review in advance of our gathering.  It will also be the space to connect with each other and see who is attending the workshop.  We have a wonderfully diverse group of folks registered representing a variety of different fields including foundations, collaborative roundtables, libraries, united ways, local, provincial and federal government departments, health, recreation and sport organizations. 

The draft agenda for the three days is posted in the ECI Nov 2011 Alumni group page.  In the next week, we are going to post copies of articles written by Mark Cabaj and published in previous editions of Engage! - Tamarack's online newsletter. Sign up for the newsletter here.

Paul Born, Mark Cabaj and I are really looking forward to meeting you at the end of November.  If you have any questions, please contact me, either through my blog (here), in the ECI Nov 2011 Alumni group or by emailing me at [email protected].  

In the interim, if you have an evaluation resource that you would like to share with your colleagues, please post it on the group page.  We hope to harvest the collective wisdom of our ECI Nov 2011 group.
