The framework image shows 4 concentric circles. The program evaluation standards (utility, feasibility, propriety, accuracy, and evaluation accountability) are at the center superimposed over the image of a budding plant. The center is surrounded by a ring with numbered steps: step 0, assess context; step 1, engage interest holders; step 2, describe the program; step 3, focus evaluation design; step 4, gather credible evidence; step 5, justify conclusions; step 6, ensure use and share lessons learned. The next ring shows interpersonal competence, cultural responsiveness, situational awareness, and critical reflection. The outermost ring, encompassing the entire graphic, is labeled evaluation capacity.
