Part 5: Logic Model for a Health Initiative

Sub-Competency 5: Create a logic model for a health initiative.

Learning Objective LO 5.1: Logic model graphically reflects the resources, stakeholders, agencies, and organizations (inputs) that will address a health initiative.

Inputs in the logic model graphic are not present.

Inputs are present in the logic model graphic but are not placed in the appropriate sequential order or category.

Inputs are present in the logic model graphic and are in alignment with the rest of the model. Inputs in the graphic demonstrate a logical “if- then” sequence in the logic model.

Demonstrates the same level of achievement as “2” plus the following: Logic model graphic includes an additional label that conveys the relationship of the inputs to steps/phases in the planning model for each logic model entry.
