Program Evaluation
- The CITE team aim to continuously improve programs and organizations and produce findings and recommendations for decision-making. Program evaluation can help clarify how to improve existing programs and build upon their strengths, why a program is or is not being implemented as planned or producing intended results, and why certain trends or patterns are observed in existing data sources. For program evaluation, we operationalize the CDC’s framework for program evaluation in public health. This framework is an evidence-based framework for program evaluation and is widely used for different public health activities including research initiatives, training and educational services, administrative systems, and interventions. Specifically, we help the client (i.e., the individual or group of individuals who commissioned the evaluation) to answer the following three questions.
- What is the best way to evaluate your unit’s program(s)?
- What will be learned from the evaluation?
- How should you employ those lessons?
Impact Evaluation
The CITE team use the Translation Science Benefit model (TSBM) to identify potential and demonstrated impact of Utah CTSI and its cores in the real world. Specifically, we will consider 30 benefits across four domains: clinical, community, economic, and policy.
Data Capture & Analysis
Using our expertise in REDCap, data visualization, and analysis, we provide wide variety of services to Utah CTSI sub-units to better collect and analyze their data.
