Overview
In this virtual, interactive workshop, you will learn how to conduct an assessment, use a logic model to plan a new project or reassess a current one, and prepare for a meaningful evaluation. Attend this course to learn project planning practices that help you build accountability and strategic thinking, reveal assumptions, and create a targeted effort with measurable results.
During the preliminary Get Ready portion of the course, you'll engage in self-guided learning for up to 45 minutes. Then, when we Get Together, you'll spend time in live learning sessions, practice applying what you’re learning to your own project idea, and join a 25 minute project consultation with an instructor. Participants may attend individually or with other members of a project team.
