We work with agencies, government departments and service providers throughout the island of Ireland. We are a non-profit organisation with skills and expertise in areas such as education, health, children and young people and social services.

CES is a not-for-profit, all island organisation established in 2008. At CES we believe that Ireland and Northern Ireland should and can have excellent public services and we want to play our part in making that a reality.

We are committed to our purpose, that is, to improve the lives of people on the island of Ireland by supporting the implementation of excellent public services through evidence-informed policy and practice.

Our vision in CES is to be a trusted partner in the design, development, implementation and evaluation of public policies and services.
