Name of Agency or Organization: The Evaluators' Institute

Opportunity Description

This course focuses on developing useful, evidence-based logic models and program theories and using them effectively to guide evaluation and avoid common traps. While tools like logic models, program theories, prior research, and ChatGPT are now commonplace in evaluation practice, they are not always used appropriately or to their best effect. At their best, these tools help provide an evidence base to guide action, offer conceptual clarity, motivate staff, and focus design and evaluations. At their worst, they can divert time and attention from critical evaluation activities, present misleading pictures of a program, and discourage investigation of causal pathways and unintended outcomes. Throughout the course, participants will engage in application exercises that demonstrate ways to use these tools to positive advantage, formulate and prioritize key evaluation questions, gather credible and actionable evidence, and recognize strategies to avoid missteps.
