Journal of Community Positive Practices, 2017, issue 1, 3-12

Abstract: Evidence Based Practice (EPB) entails making decisions relying on the combination between the best available evidence and the best practical expertise. A method used in medicine starting with the 90's, it has been extended nowadays to other fields such as education. The current paper looks at the use of EPB in student dropout mitigation, as an example of method diversification within educational policy implementation strategies. To that end, the model was applied to a "1 Decembrie 1918" University of Alba Iulia (Romania) project. The results support the applicability of EPB model to other institutions, providing higher education and being confronted with the problem of academic dropout.
