<jats:p> This paper provides the results of a literature review on the use of practical, hands-on training experiences in evaluation course work and training programs. The review spans the years 1965-2003. I identified 18 articles that encompass four basic approaches for practical evaluation training: simulation, role-play, single course projects, and practicum experiences. The articles are summarized, documenting strengths, challenges, and unique features for each strategy. Findings from this review indicate substantial resources are often needed for effective practical training experiences. Authors of articles in this review illustrate a variety of options for incorporating methodology and or evaluation theory into the training experiences. The few articles that adhere to a pedagogical framework employ learning models that are consonant with the adult education literature and structure the practical experience accordingly. The literature reveals a lack of formal research on practical evaluation training. Faculty and students consistently speak to the benefits of these training experiences. </jats:p>
