Abstract

This article aimed to identify the emphasis on evaluation use within evaluation competency frameworks. A review of evaluation competency frameworks shows an underlying focus on evaluation use in all frameworks. Nevertheless, specific competencies explicitly focusing on evaluation use were incorporated in more recent frameworks, reflecting the increasing attention to evaluation use. A theory of change for evaluation use is proposed depicting the role of competencies of evaluators and critical users. The article argues for more emphasis on directly use related competencies and extending the competencies beyond evaluators to users. It proposes establishing standardized and up-to-date evaluation training in academic institutions to professionalize evaluation and thereby promote the integration of evaluation in development interventions.   Keywords: competency frameworks, evaluation competencies, use of evaluation, evaluation training, development interventions.
评价能力和评价的使用:一些思考
本文旨在确定评价能力框架中对评价使用的重视程度。对评价能力框架的审查表明,所有框架都对评价的使用给予了根本性的重视。然而,在最近的框架中,明确关注评价使用的具体能力被纳入其中,这反映出评价使用日益受到重视。文章提出了评价使用的变革理论,描述了评价人员和关键用户的能力作用。文章认为,应更加重视与直接使用相关的能力,并将这些能力从评估者扩展到使用者。文章建议在学术机构建立标准化的最新评价培训,使评价专业化,从而促进将评价纳入发展干预措施。 关键词:能力框架;评价能力;评价的使用;评价培训;发展干预。
