Abstract

The lead institution, Northcentral Technical College (NTC), retained the University of Wisconsin-Stout (UW-Stout) Applied Research Center as the third-party evaluator. The UW-Stout Evaluation Team has overseen the evaluation design, implementation (including data collection and analysis), reporting, dissemination, and publication of results. Reporting of the evaluation results has followed the prescribed timeline from the USDOL’s Solicitation for Grant Applications (SGA). This evaluation used a quasi-experimental, concurrent mixed methods design. Using both qualitative and quantitative data sources simultaneously allowed the evaluation team to provide a thorough analysis and triangulate results. The primary goal of the evaluation was to help the consortium and the USDOL understand the impacts and outcomes of the INTERFACE Project. A secondary goal, fulfilled by this report, is to provide summative feedback to stakeholders with the intent of facilitating continuous improvement efforts at each of the colleges after the conclusion of the grant period.
