A developmental job assignment is a formal opportunity for an employee to develop professional knowledge, skills, and abilities that would not otherwise be available through their normal work activities. Developmental job assignments should be primarily a product of the employeeâs Performance and Development Plan (PDP).

In utilization-focused evaluation, the evaluator is always a negotiator ânegotiating withprimary intended users what other roles he or she will play.
