Arcadian Resources conducts evaluations that help clients articulate the performance questions they want addressed. Our evaluations are appraisals of education, counseling and social service systems and component performance that are client centered, independent, objective, and nonpartisan. We provide solid support for decision making and action to federal, state, and local government agencies as well as businesses and nonprofit organizations.
Our evaluations are based on management objectives. We collect quantitative data using standardized and non-standardized tests, existing databases, surveys, records abstractions, observations, focus groups and interviews. We also have a broad background in qualitative research methodologies designed to inform the quality and fidelity of implementation of a wide variety of initiatives.
Arcadian Resources provides professional services that help other organizations more successfully align goals and practice. We offer content expertise, tools, and complementary services to help organizations plan strategically and systemically. Our experience in developing goals and defining outcomes enables us to support the process of continuous improvement.
Arcadian Resources designs and delivers professional development and technical assistance along four dimensions of effectiveness. First, professional services must be based on evidence gained from careful, systematic examination of effective practice. Second, these services must be consistent with agreed-upon goals, aligned with other organizational goals or improvements, clearly articulated, and purposeful. Third, professional services must be focused on capacity building and the ultimate goal of self-sufficiency, with participants demonstrating a willingness to work together to gain new skills and understandings. Finally, professional services must be designed and implemented in accordance with a client’s unique needs and context.
Finally, a key service you should know about is that Arcadian Resources is committed to providing ground level, practical, and easy to understand technical reports. We know how to do high-browed technical writing but we hear too often that such reports just end up on a shelf somewhere. We want to produce documents, research and recommendations you can really use! Try us and you'll see that you'll get what you really need to help your organization meet its goals and move forward!
