Conducting an ENACT Assessment Without a User Account
Conducting an ENACT assessment without a user account is simple. Simply follow these 6 easy steps.
1. Select an environment (e.g., Childcare, Schools, etc.) from the left navigation bar. This will bring you to the menu of strategies for that environment.
2. Print a copy of the menu of strategies that you have selected.
3. Review the Menu of Strategies; for each of the strategies listed:
- Assess your current status: Type 1-5 in the right- hand boxes based on a qualitative impression of how much infrastructure/political will is already in place (see the key below for additional information).
- Prioritize each of the listed strategies: (High, Medium, or Low) and write the result in the left hand column. Depending on the result of your overall assessment, you may decide to:
- Strengthen your overall nutrition and physical activity foundation by prioritizing as "high" those activities that are not highly developed (a current status of 1-2)
- Build on your successes by prioritizing as "high" those activities that could be developed even further (a current status of 3-4)
Current Status Key:
1 = Elements not in place
2 = Few elements in place and not well developed
3 = Some elements in place and need development
4 = Most elements in place or some elements well developed
5 = All elements in place and well developed
Using ENACT to Implement Strategies
Once you've identified your priority strategies, use ENACT as a one-stop-shop for practical “how-to” information for implementation, including case-studies, resources, tools, model policies, and, when available, an evidence-base. Simply click on your strategy to view a brief description of the strategy and links to the various resources.
