UNC and other public health training centers. I'm not exactly clear on
whether anyone can take these classes.
Self study evaluation modules http://www.uwex.edu/impacts/evaluation-modules/
so far as I can tell, mainly slides of information, but probably good
for beginners.

anyone, anywhere, to educate themselves via interactive multimedia for
FREE." Alison.com is the provider of classes. Trainers and
organizations pay a small fee to provide classes
for their people, but people can take classes for free. Currently
no evaluation classes, but perhaps sometime.....
