The LEAD Center (Learning Through Evaluation Adaptation and Dissemination) at the University of Wisconsin at Madison performed a third party evaluation of the DMP Program from 1995-2001. The evaluations were based on exit surveys completed by each year's DMP participants and annual tracking surveys of all DMP participants.
