A Guide to Developing a TB Program Evaluation Plan

On This Page
> Introduction to Program Evaluation
> TB Program Evaluation Guide
> Webinar: Program Evaluation

Writing an evaluation plan is an essential part of the planning process. An evaluation plan serves as a guide to conducting program evaluations. The plan will:

  • Lay out a cohesive approach to conducting the evaluation and using the results
  • Guide the evaluation by explaining what the activities are, when the activities should occur, how they will be accomplished, and who is responsible for completing them
  • Document the process for all stakeholders
  • Ensure implementation of the evaluation

This document is intended to help TB program staff develop and write an evaluation plan. It consists of a template for writing your evaluation plan, followed by detailed instructions and guidance for filling in each section, as well as a sample evaluation plan.

National TB Indicators Project: Initial Indicators and Performance Targets - National TB program objectives were developed to assist TB control programs in their effort to evaluate their own performance.
