The following example is intended to further portray the nature of inputs, processes, outputs and outcomes. Illustrated below is the basic structure of a logic model:

Inputs >> Activities >> Outputs >> Outcome >> Impact

Logic models for programs are often more detailed. The logic model illustrated below is for an organization called the Self-Directed Learning Center (SDLC).
