Strengthening EHDI Program Management: A Step-by-Step Guide in Developing and Creating an Effective Work Plan

Do you see a work plan as an invaluable tool to make your Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) program more efficient and effective, or as a burden because you are not sure how to develop one and use it? A work plan is a program management tool that provides direction and guidance for the program and its components. This tool is designed to be used for program planning, implementation, and monitoring progress toward program goals, It is a detailed road map for running the program for a given time period. When programs have work plans and logic models in place, they are better positioned to improve program implementation and effectiveness. This session will include an overview of work plans and logic model development, and a discussion of goals, measures of success, and effective objectives. Participants will gain practical experience through a series of exercises, which will involve the design of a work plan utilizing existing logic models, identifying and developing relevant measures of success, to help also in assessing the impact of EHDI program

  • • Understand the key components of an effective work plan and logic model
  • • Explain the purpose and value of developing goals, measures of success, and effective objectives for evaluating your jurisdictional early hearing detection and intervention (EHDI) program
  • • Utilize metrics to assess progress and support improvement in the early identification of deaf and hard of hearing (D/HH) children
