Abstract of Proposed Collection
The U.S. State Department is required
to collect periodic program performance
reports. As a part of these reporting
requirements, ECA requires
implementing partners to provide
performance monitoring data in the
form of a post-program survey. The
Qualtrics survey platform will be
utilized by ECA and implementing
partners to standardize post-program
survey data collection, aggregation, and
reporting both internally and externally.
The Qualtrics platform will consolidate
data from all ECA programs onto a
single survey platform, streamlining the
survey creation process, ensuring the
reliability of data, and automatically
aggregating and visualizing program
performance data.
Methodology
ECA will be responsible for providing
the username and login information for
each implementing partner who will use
the Qualtrics platform for the postprogram surveys required to meet the
performance monitoring reporting
requirements outlined in the award.
ECA will also be responsible for
providing the suite of survey questions
within Qualtrics to ease the burden of
setup for the implementing partners.
The implementing partners will be
responsible for selecting the required
survey questions, inserting any custom
survey questions they would like to ask,
creating the mailing list of respondents,
and launching the survey.

Managing Director, Policy, Bureau of
Educational and Cultural Affairs, Department
of State.
