Welcome to the American Evaluation Association

    The American Evaluation Association is an international professional association of evaluators devoted to the application and exploration of program evaluation, personnel evaluation, technology, and many other forms of evaluation. Evaluation involves assessing the strengths and weaknesses of programs, policies, personnel, products, and organizations to improve their effectiveness. AEA has approximately 7700 members representing all 50 states in the United States as well as over 60 foreign countries.

    AEA is moving to a new headquarters May 20th, so please update your files with the new contact information!

    You will still be able to reach us at info@eval.org, but someone new may be answering your emails. To learn more about the transition to a new management company, please read our FAQ.
