How are consultants evaluated?
Consultants are evaluated according to their fulfillment of the BEST requirements and their work with agencies. Work with agencies is assessed by the Lead Consultant and Director of Programs with input from agency directors. Because the assessment report is given to the agency with a promise of confidentiality, the Lead Consultant is the only one outside of the agencies board and staff and their consultant to have access to this document. This access is for quality assurance purposes only.
