Abstract

At the request of the Canadian Evaluation Society, the P.E.I. Chapter of that organization has compiled a status report of evaluation policy and practice in the Government of Prince Edward Island. The theme we have chosen is one of accountability and the progress towards managing for and reporting on results. The first half of the report is a chronology of the movement towards formalizing an accountability structure in the P.E.I. public sector, followed by examples of how four departments are utilizing performance measurement to report on achievement of stated goals.
