Monitoring outcomes and measuring success
Evaluation closes the loop in the TRIP process. It helps you understand whether change has been implemented as intended, what impact it has had, and how results can be sustained and shared.
Effective evaluation starts during planning, not after implementation, and includes both process and outcome measures. This module builds on your Implementation Plan by showing how to measure what has changed and why it matters. Learn how to choose practical indicators that demonstrate whether your practice change is improving care, efficiency, and outcomes.
Evaluating Change
Focus on monitoring outcomes and measuring success so you can understand what changed and why it matters.

Logic models
Program logic models map the pathway from project initiation to impact. A program logic model illustrates how activities lead to measurable change. Program logic models are a way to:
- Clarify structure and purpose
- Guide implementation
- Engage stakeholders
- Support evaluation
Your logic model should evolve across the TRIP process – from initial planning to final evaluation. It’s important to revisit this regularly throughout your project.
Open the Program Logic Model toolMonitoring Outcomes and Measuring Success: Learn how to plan meaningful evaluation measures that demonstrate impact.
Logic Models: Understand how to use logic models to track change from action to outcome.
Implementation vs. Intervention Outcomes: Understand the different types of measures used in TRIP projects – implementation outcomes, intervention outcomes, and process measures.
