How to report performance metrics in your UCF progress report
Summary
A how-to on filling the performance metrics grid in the UCF progress report: populate three columns (prior totals, this-period totals, and accomplishment descriptions), copy previous values when needed, and provide concrete examples like completed management plans or event attendance.
Elderbrock laid out how grantees should complete the program project narrative performance metrics: the portal uses three columns — quantity completed prior to this reporting period, quantity completed this reporting period, and a description of accomplishments. He recommended opening a separate browser tab with the prior report so users can copy previously reported totals into the 'prior' column when the portal does not auto-populate those fields.
He offered concrete examples to illustrate entries: "maybe, for example, you actually had a management plan generated or you had, you know, 50 participants in community events," and he showed how to enter those figures and describe accomplishments (for example, an urban forester completing a management plan in the current period). The tutorial also notes that expected future outputs may be listed (for example, planning to plant 100 trees in a future quarter).
