Data Collection Plan

Project details

What we need
  • A set of key metrics to regularly track
  • Spreadsheet tool to collect data on key metrics with accompanying tables and graphs for analysis
  • Training for best practices on data collection
  • Training on how to use the spreadsheet and analyze key metrics
  • Note: This project does not include data entry or analysis
What we have in place
  • We currently have an engagement plan, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have milestones, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $6,868 , allowing us to focus on the actual recruitment and retention of members.

As a new member of the team, I need to be able to show my progress and growth to both the staff and the board. Having a dashboard that shows my work will help my team spot areas in need of attention. This will also help me keep track of milestones and yearly objectives.
