Principles and Techniques of Veterinary and AH Extension

EVALUATION OF PROGRESS

• Evaluation is the process of determining the extent to which the objectives have been achieved.
• All programmes must have an in-built system of evaluation to know how well the work is done.
• It should be a continuous process not only to measure the end result but also to ensure that all the steps are correctly followed.
• Evaluation may be formal or informal, depending on the importance of the programme and also on the availability of trained manpower, funds, facilities and time.
