PUBLIC HEALTH PROGRAM PLANNING AND EVALUATION.

Catalog description

Before we can effectively receive funding and implement programs that benefit our communities, we have to answer many questions. Who is the target audience? What are the program's goals? What are the intended outcomes of the program? How can we measure program effectiveness? Program evaluation is the methodology to developing scientifically sound answers to these questions. This course will teach you how evaluators work with stakeholders and project teams to tailor an intervention to a target audience, and document program activities, outcomes and impact on a community health issue. This course will allow you to have hands-on experience designing and conducting program evaluation.
