Program Evaluation Services in Tampa Bay, FL
Program Evaluation Across St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Tampa & Sarasota
Customized Program Evaluations for Tampa Bay Organizations
A region as large as Tampa Bay rarely fits one evaluation approach, and RAC doesn't try to force one. Whether your program operates out of Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, or Sarasota, RAC builds the evaluation around what that specific program is trying to achieve.
Evaluation Across a Multi-County Region
Programs that operate across Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Sarasota counties often answer to more than one local partner, which can mean inconsistent data collection from one site to the next. RAC designs a single evaluation framework that holds up across county lines, so a program based in Clearwater and one based in Sarasota get measured the same way, even when local conditions differ.
Program Evaluation for Higher Education
Tampa Bay's university presence brings a steady need for accreditation reviews, retention data, and evaluations of new academic initiatives. RAC's team has more than 10 years of experience as an accreditation site visitor and knows how to work with faculty across a campus to collect the data an administration actually needs.
Grant & Funder Reporting
Nonprofit and government programs throughout the region draw on federal, state, local, and private funding, and some of that funding comes with formal or independent evaluation built into its reporting requirements. RAC takes on that evaluator role where it's needed, shaping deliverables around what a funder has actually asked to see.
A Multidisciplinary, Equity-Guided Team
RAC's consultants bring backgrounds in statistics, psychometrics, psychology, and software engineering, including multiple PhDs and a lifetime member of the American Statistical Association, with more than 20 years of research and evaluation consulting experience.
A five-step equity framework guides every stage, from inclusive planning through final interpretation, and depending on what a program needs to answer, the team applies formative, summative, needs assessment, or cost-benefit approaches alongside statistical techniques ranging from regression modeling to Structural Equation Modeling and psychometric validation.
Getting Started
Every engagement begins with a free consultation covering your program, your funder's requirements, and your timeline before any cost estimate is built. RAC then coordinates data collection and evaluation work to match the needs, scope, and location of your program, wherever in the Tampa Bay area it operates.
