The PRIME Program is offering this grant to advance research and innovation in evaluation methodologies, particularly for STEM education projects and workforce development initiatives. This grant is for the purpose of exploring innovative approaches to determine impacts and usefulness, expanding the theoretical foundations for evaluation, and building capacity within the evaluation field. The program aims to support studies that translate and adapt methodologies from other disciplines. Two types of proposals are encouraged: Exploratory Projects, focusing on proof-of-concept and feasibility studies, and more extensive Full-Scale Projects. This initiative seeks to strengthen the infrastructure and knowledge base of the evaluation community.
