Popis: International audience; Impact analyses and evaluations of professional development programmes are mainly scheduled during or at the end of a particular programme. They aim at and provide results regarding immediate and short-term effects. However, apart from and beyond that, an analysis of sustainable effects is crucial. To address this issue, this contribution deals with the central question: What is the sustainable impact of professional development programmes? Theoretical models and empirical findings are introduced. In particular, this contribution provides two case studies' results regarding Austrian professional development programmes' impact. Here, the factors which foster or hinder the sustainability of impact are in the focus. Finally, implications for professional development programmes' implementation and research are discussed.
