NIOSH Programs > Personal Protective Technology > National Academies Evaluation Personal Protective TechnologyReview & Evaluation: National Academies EvaluationThe PPT Program review was initiated in September 2007 and the report delivered June 25, 2008. NIOSH understands that external expert review is one of the most valid and accepted methods of evaluating research programs. Consequently, NIOSH requested that the National Academies (NA) evaluate NIOSH's research programs with respect to their impact, relevance, and future directions. The NA was asked to evaluate not only what NIOSH research programs are producing, but also to determine the extent to which NIOSH research is responsible for changes in the workplace that reduce the risk of occupational injuries, illnesses, and deaths. The evaluation is being undertaken by the National Research Council (NRC) and the Institute of Medicine (IOM) in the NA.
