Which option is NOT a component of the ASCA National Model?

• A. DEFINE, MANAGE, DELIVER, ASSESS
• B. DEFINE, MANAGE, DELIVER, EVALUATE
• C. DEFINE, MANAGE, ASSESS, DELIVER
• D. DEFINE, DELIVER, ASSESS, EVALUATE

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is recognizing the four components that make up the ASCA National Model: Define, Manage, Deliver, and Assess. The term used for the final step is Assess, not Evaluate. So any option that includes Evaluate as part of the four components is not representing the model correctly.

This option lists Define, Manage, Deliver, and Evaluate. Because Evaluate is not a component of the ASCA National Model, this option is not a valid representation of the four components. The model relies on Assess to gauge outcomes and program effectiveness, not Evaluate.

Remember, the order of the components can vary, and any option that includes the four correct components in any order would be valid. The key distinction here is the use of Evaluate versus Assess.
