Create a logic model (you’ll actually use)
Clear data, metrics, and evaluation begin with a logic model.
Sign up for this 6-month, in-depth course to create a logic model you'll actually use to win more grants, work with more clients, and create sustainable change.
Logic models. Theories of Change. Conceptual frameworks. Conceptual models. Perhaps you’ve seen these words in grant applications or articles and asked yourself: What’s the difference? Does it matter? Which one should I use?
Generally speaking, theories of change tend to be broader and messier. Logic models more actionable and precise. Conceptual lands somewhere in the middle.
At the end of the day, all of these things are tools to map out your idea - to paint a picture of how you create change in the world, and spell out what that change is.
Logic models (my tool of choice) are incredible for:
Telling the story of how you create change in the world,
Getting clarity on what you need to measure when evaluating your success, and
Meeting funder requirements (real talk).
A strong logic model sets you up to collect data that answers questions like:
Does my product/service/program/policy work?
How does my product/service/program/policy work to create change?
How could I make my product/service/program work better?
What does my community want or need most?
What challenges do people face in this area?

This course is for you if…
-
I get it! You’re busy. That’s why this course keeps things short and sweet. We break down the process of creating a logic model step-by-step and include work-time on our calls.
-
Logic models are tools for telling the story of your work. You will learn questions and processes to drill down and describe your work as clearly and simply as possible.
-
We all do! And, the trouble is when you miscategorize aspects of your work, the story your telling gets confusing. Together we’ll make sure everything is in the place it needs to be in order to best describe what you are doing and why it matters.
-
Logic models are one of the first steps in program evaluation because you can’t learn whether or not (or how) something works if you don’t first clearly describe how it works. If you don’t have a logic model, your evaluation is more likely to lack focus and consistency.
-
Here’s the thing: good data starts with a logic model. I see so many people skip this step and wish they’d created one to guide their work sooner. Do it now, future you will thank you!
-
Oftentimes, funders require logic models as part of the application process. If not, they are still a great tool to clearly convey what your work is and why it matters.
