Evaluation of ERNs

It is 5 years since the ERNs were established and therefore it is time to look at all aspects of our network to determine the worth and significance of the work and actions developed by the ERNs. This upcoming evaluation process will be transparent and independent from the policy making, and developed by a third party, the Independent Evaluation Body (IEB), to enhance credibility while evaluating both the Endo-ERN and our full member HCPs (only those who became member in 2017). As we begin this process, the Endo-ERN coordination team will share information and instructions with our members directly and via our Evaluation webpage. The Evaluation Manual and toolbox are already available so please peruse this when you can!
