Program Planning and Design

Anytime--This e-course focuses on translating the principles of evidence-based practice into an effective program design.

Overview

Deliberate planning is essential to reduce recidivism and meet program goals. Program planners and administrators need to communicate clearly a program’s objectives, identify targets for change, set intermediate goals, and ensure the program’s integrity through best practices. Building an effective evaluation framework will provide the capabilities for program planners and administrators to learn from their experience and, as information is gathered, improve the program design.

Objectives

At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Define the problems to be addressed.
  • Describe what will be done about these problems.
  • Define how success will be measured.

Audience

Directors, planners, and key program management staff from state and local agencies whose responsibilities include offender supervision and treatment in the community; staff responsible for management information and research on community corrections programs; and state and local officials who oversee community corrections.
