D2 program Model


Your course project is all about planning, designing, and evaluating a program. Thus, choosing an appropriate program planning model is key to your course project. Knowing each program planning model’s characteristics, advantages, and limitations will help you choose an appropriate model and use it effectively in your project work.

Explore the module resources to learn about four different program planning models and the logic model. Then, choose one of the following program planning models to discuss:

  • PRECEDE-PROCEED model
  • Strategic planning
  • Business plan
  • Intervention mapping

In your initial post, compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of your chosen program planning model against the strengths and the weaknesses you see in the logic model. Include the following in your response:

  • Describe the need for a program planning model.
  • Identify two similarities and/or differences between the logic model and the program planning model you chose.
