ESS Evaluation Tool: Interactive Logic Model Template


A logic model tells the story of your project, or programme, in a diagram and a few simple words. It shows a causal connection between the need you have identified, what you do and how this makes a difference for individuals and communities.

This interactive logic model, based on the University of Wisconsin model, has been designed as an editable document for you to create your own logic model which you can save, edit, share with your colleagues, and print. Below you will find a PDF version and an Excel version of the template.

Do you need to demonstrate your contribution to strategic and national outcomes? Our tailored support can help you with this evaluation challenge. 🎯

Just getting started with evaluation? Our first Let’s Evaluate! workshop, Getting Started – Outcomes and Indicators, will teach you about these crucial building blocks of evaluation. Learn more about our workshops. ✏️

  • Download the file below and save before editing the template.
  • If you have any difficulties using the PDF, we recommend downloading the most up-to-date version of Adobe Acrobat.

For tips on how to complete a logic model, see: Support Guide 1c – Developing a Logic Model. Some organisations may find it helpful to use a logic model when developing their evaluation plan, find our evaluation plan template here.
