The Secretary may also require more frequent performance reports under 34 CFR 75.720(c). For specific requirements on reporting, please go to Error! Hyperlink reference not valid.. 4. Performance Measures: Under the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), the Department will use the following measures to assess the performance of this program: (a) The percentage of FIPSE grantees reporting project dissemination to others. (b) The percentage of FIPSE projects reporting institutionalization on their home campuses. If funded, you will be asked to collect and report data on these measures in your project’s annual performance report (34 CFR 75.590). Applicants are also advised to consider these two measures in conceptualizing the design, implementation, and evaluation of the proposed project because of their importance in the application review process.
