As home to the Innovative Prosecution Solutions (IPS) Research and Evaluation Training and Technical Assistance team, RTI International has developed a webinar series to support the creation and ongoing engagement of a learning community of local researchers and practitioners interested in discussing evaluation-related topic areas, sharing methodological techniques, and addressing problem-solving challenges in carrying out applied research. In this webinar, IPS grantees discussed the importance of implementation and performance metrics – not only for grant monitoring, but also for informing outcome and impact evaluations. View the discussion for key insights into research design flexibility, privacy and confidentiality concerns, and garnering project buy-in.
