U.S. Department of Education to host webinar series on logic models for its grant applications

The U.S. Department of Education’s Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) Division will host a three-part webinar series on logic models, which are visual representations that demonstrate the relationship between proposed activities and desired outcomes.

Part 1 will be held on Tuesday, July 12 at 3:00 p.m. ET. To join the webinar, click here.

The first webinar, “Theory & Fundamentals,” will provide the opportunity to learn more about the importance of logic models, as well as how to create a logic model in the context of HSI grants. Creating an effective logic model is a critical part of the grant process, as it allows reviewers, program officers, and others to easily understand the main components of the grant-funded project.

As a vital part of the grant process, all HACU members are encouraged to attend.
