Performance Reporting and Evaluation

Annual Performance Reporting allows programs to determine the overall effectiveness in meeting program goals and objectives, including performance measures 1 and 2 (formerly known as GPRAs 1 and 2) and efficiency targets.

Program evaluation allows programs to: 1) provide data on performance measures 1 and 2 and efficiency targets; 2) determine at what level of quality program activities are being implemented; and 3) identify strengths and weaknesses in program implementation and program effectiveness through tools such as exit interviews, surveys, observations, recruitment, counseling, or tutoring logs, and research analyses (finding correlations between practices and results). Program evaluation is both formative and summative, allowing for the use of annual performance results that may lead to recommendations for changes in programming.
