Live Online Logic Model Development for Effective M&E Training Course
Live online, instructor-led · next cohort Nov 16, 2026 · from USD 800
A clear programme logic is the backbone of credible monitoring and evaluation, yet many logic models are drawn once for a proposal and then forgotten. You begin with results-based management and the anatomy of a model, inputs, activities, outputs, short and medium-term outcomes and impact, and how it differs from a theory of change and logframe. Design and development sessions use problem analysis, outcome mapping and if-then reasoning to build models that are plausible, testable and concise. You then attach indicators, data sources, baselines and targets at every level so the model becomes a measurement tool.
Integration days show how to use the model to structure M&E plans, evaluation questions, reporting templates and learning reviews, and how to update it as evidence emerges. The final day covers applying logic models to strategy, proposals, portfolio management and complex or adaptive programmes. Participants build and refine a complete model for a programme they manage, receiving detailed peer and facilitator critique. Experienced M&E officers, programme designers, evaluators, proposal writers and managers will be able to create robust logic models and keep them at the heart of performance management.

About this course
This practical and interactive training focuses on helping professionals develop logic models that strengthen monitoring and evaluation systems, improve accountability, and support measurable results. The course explores results chain development, logic model frameworks, performance measurement systems, outcome mapping methodologies, impact assessment approaches, and evidence-based planning practices. Participants will gain practical skills for linking activities to outcomes, measuring results, improving program performance, and supporting informed decision-making.
Throughout the programme, participants work through realistic scenarios drawn from development initiatives, donor-funded programmes, nonprofit operations, and public sector environments, examining how logic model development for effective M&E is applied in practice and where it most often breaks down. Delegates will develop practical skill in designing appropriate frameworks, selecting and applying the right tools for logic model design and development, interpreting findings, and communicating conclusions clearly to colleagues, management and external stakeholders. Sessions move deliberately from principles to application, so that each technique introduced is practised against a realistic problem before the programme moves on — strengthening both individual effectiveness and the wider capability of the organizations delegates return to.
Training Objectives
- Design comprehensive logic models that align program activities with intended outcomes and impact.
- Analyze program structures using results-based management and logic model methodologies.
