TESTIMONIALS

Claudia Armann

McCune Foundation

In launching a new program, we knew evaluation was indispensable. Rubayi took great initiative in learning about our values and goals, and designing processes for a robust evaluation that is shaping how the program is evolving to serve participants. Rubayi’s expertise, insights, and commitment to excellence have made her a valuable member of our team.

UC Berkeley - ORIAS

Rubayi Estes/Estrat Solutions provided evaluation services for a suite of federally-funded programs offered through my office at UC Berkeley. These interlocking programs serve community college and k-12 educators on behalf of 8 different offices on campus. Because of federal funding changes, the evaluation was critical for us in deciding how to proceed in an environment of extreme uncertainty. When Rubayi arrived to conduct observations and participant interviews, she was fully up to speed on the range of stakeholders involved, the history of my office, past evaluations, and my concerns about the future. Her final evaluation reflected a nuanced understanding of my goals and questions, and provided clear, tiered guidance about how to proceed moving forward. When I shared the report with the relevant offices on campus, one of the recipients commented, "I can't remember a report of this caliber since I started at [this office] in 2003."
