Welcome to the Employment Social Development Canada KIOSK. Here you will find evaluation summaries, announcements and videos that highlight the work we do. Here are a few interesting points about our evaluation directorate:
- We are a large evaluation group with approximately 70 staff;
- On average, we present approximately 15 evaluations and evaluability assessments to Performance Measurement Evaluation Committee (PMEC) each year; and,
- Some of our evaluations require that we integrate databases from our programs, CRA, and statistics Canada to determine levels of impact.
