How are we doing?

CEI performs a thorough evaluation of every placement every year.

We want to see the interns “in action” and make a point of visiting them in the field. We have also designed an evaluation questionnaire which helps us gather information to assess the impact of the program.

Below is a tabulation of responses from our 73 interns and 49 host organizations:
