Evaluation Standards of the Swiss Evaluation Society

The evaluation standards of the Swiss Evaluation Society (SEVAL Standards) are meant to contribute to the professionalization of evaluation in Switzerland. Adhering to the SEVAL Standards enhances the credibility, quality, and trustworthiness of evaluations. High quality evaluations can only be created when all involved – that is, the evaluators themselves, those who commission the evaluations, and other persons participating in the evaluation – work together. The SEVAL Standards therefore provide criteria that all persons involved in an evaluation have a duty to uphold.
