CCN “Logic Model”

Developed for the October 2014 “FAS4ATE” workshop, this spreadsheet explores the CCN “community of practice” process in terms of a logic model that lists Needs, Inputs, Activities, Outputs, and Outcomes. Logic models help show connections between needs and outcomes. It's a good tool to create an educated prediction about project success, such as when you're developing a new project.

The CTC updated its logic model for the October 2016 ATE grant renewal proposal.
