Nova Scotia, known as “Canada’s Ocean Playground”, is a Maritime province located within Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. Nova Scotia is also home to rich Acadian, African Nova Scotian, and Celtic history and culture.
Technical sessions, exhibitor displays, and interesting keynote speakers will connect and educate our guests. Evaluation knowledge, products, and services allow organizations to learn about new processes, techniques and best practices from your colleagues and peers.
We hope that you’ll meet us on the bridge between theory and practice at the 2019 CES National Conference. From here we will sustain and improve what we’ve built and seek guiding beacons of light on the horizon that will help us navigate unchartered and unknown frontiers
c2019 Theme: Bridges
Subtheme 1: Bridges that connect
This sub-theme invites conversations about the connections built, sustained, or strengthened through evaluation and is an opportunity to share experiences about building and traveling bridges to overcome obstacles to evaluation. Evaluators also build bridges to strengthen stakeholder relationships and to help programs reach their goals efficiently and effectively.
Subtheme 2: Sustaining and using bridges
Subtheme 3: Stories from the ship’s bridge
A bridge can be ‘the elevated platform from which the captain steers a ship’. From the bridge the captain has a broad view of the surrounding environment and access to navigational tools to guide the ship safely on its journey. This subtheme conjures notions of complex system evaluation and is an opportunity for delegates to share their experiences from the ship’s bridge as evaluative leaders guiding the way through complex systems in stormy weather and fair skies.
