The Office for Evaluation

The Office for Evaluation helps faculty members develop evaluation components for their training programs. It provides grant development consultation, tracking systems, and infrastructure in which to conduct the evaluation of trainees. It also has specialized resources to help investigators who are preparing training grant proposals.

The Research on Careers Committee is housed within the Office for Evaluation and focuses on the evaluation of the career development and success of trainees. It has created a sophisticated mechanism and rigorous follow-up structure to track the progress of trainees and scholars, and it publishes articles on career success metrics. The committee recently developed a theoretical model for the career trajectory of trainees and scholars, and this model is of wide interest to the larger community involved in clinical and translational science training.
