Training & Education

Measuring economic development in the 21st century webinar

Co-sponsored by the Washington State Department of Commerce and the Washington Economic Development Association

January 17, 2012
10 – 11 am

Measuring the impact of economic development is an art…and a science. If handled effectively, performance measures can help guide the allocation of resources, protect a program from “meddling”, avoid having outside interests redefining your program, help with mid-course corrections, and perhaps most importantly, support your funding requests.

  • Learn how to accomplish these goals
  • Explore options to gauge impact
  • Understand performance measurement timelines
  • Hear how to manage expectations
