Successful builders rely on tools they know have worked well in the past. It isn’t enough to know simply what tools that are available; becoming successful depends upon learning which tool is right for a given job. You might know you need a saw to cut materials, but an accomplished builder will know immediately whether you’ll need a circular saw or a reciprocal saw. Both are electric, and both cut through materials, but they serve different functions. Determining which tool to use depends on many factors, such as the type of material used and the desired end result.

 As in building, certain tools have been shown to be necessary in the construction of a successful public health program; these tools include logic models, budgets, and timelines. Logic models, which can take many forms, are graphic representations of what a program intends to accomplish (outputs) with the resources available (inputs). Budgets and timelines also may be represented graphically. Public health professionals need to understand the uses and challenges of tools used in public health program implementation.

For this week’s Discussion, review the media titled Programming Tools. Also, explore the sample logic models, budgets, and timelines in the Learning Resources. Select one of the three programming tools: a logic model, a budget, or a timeline, and consider the potential uses and challenges of using this tool in your SPP

To complete this week’s Individual Reflection: Create and submit a resume that highlights your individual skills critical to teamwork and effective collaboration. Your resume should be at least one page, but not more than two pages. You should include relevant examples to support your experience and skills. Draft and submit a one-page cover letter in which you try to “sell yourself” to WCI. Your goal is to get hired on the model team, so be sure to talk about your passion for teambuilding, past experience in team work, and any other information you think would be helpful to WCI. Your letter should be addressed to: [removed] Thank you, RDB
