SERIES DESCRIPTION

Logic models are a visual planning tool that are a core element of strategic planning. Prevention professionals can use logic models to facilitate the development of a strategic plan, check the plan for issues or errors, explain the plan to others, and provide a baseline for the development of implementation and evaluation plans. This two-part webinar series will explain what logic models are and why they are important, teach skills for developing logic models, and provide participants opportunities to practice those skills.

 

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This webinar will build from part one of this series. It will first explain in more detail the process of creating a logic model and provide a practice exercise for participants to begin building their own logic models. The webinar will also walk through how to use a completed logic model, including the steps for turning a logic model into an implementation plan and evaluation plan. Lastly, the webinar will discuss other uses of logic models, such as being shared with funders and community partners. The webinar will provide a small group discussion opportunity for participants to share their experiences with logic models, barriers and challenges encountered when developing logic models, and success strategies.

 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  1. Explain the process for developing a logic model
  2. Begin planning the development of their own logic models
  3. Understand how to incorporate logic models into implementation and evaluation plans
