Program evaluations: Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

Evaluating program progress and reporting on results are good management practices. Evaluations give senior managers evidence-based information to improve programming, shape new policies and programs, and ensure value for money. Evaluation studies consider a program’s ongoing need, intended outcomes, and whether there are alternative, more cost-effective ways to meet objectives.
