3 Work Plan Worksheet FGP

Overview and Instructions

FGP Work Plan Development Worksheets

Overview: The summary sheets below, along with the pre-formatted Work Plan Development Worksheets, are optional tools to help you plan placement of your volunteers in the Focus Areas and Performance Measures for the three-year performance period, as specified in the Grant Application Instructions. By using these templates to pre-plan how your volunteers will be placed in service opportunities and activities, you can plot the scope of your FGP project, and use each completed sheet to calculate your percentages in each type of Performance Measure. Additionally, the completed Worksheets can be used as reference when you enter your Work Plan data into the eGrants System.

Instructions:

1. As you complete these worksheets, we encourage you to reference the following resources:

• Appendix B: 2013 National Performance Measures Instructions http://www.seniorcorps.gov/pdf/12_0707_appendix_b_performance_measures.pdf

• National Performance Measure Instruments for FGP http://www.nationalserviceresources.org/npm/instruments/63

2. Use the following definitions when calculating “Total Number of Unduplicated Volunteers” and “Total Number of Volunteers”:

• Number of Unduplicated Volunteers: This is the proposed number of volunteers who will be performing each service activity. Each volunteer can only be counted once when assigned to a service activity. The volunteer should be counted in the area where he/she will make the most impact- in terms of the type of service or in terms of the scope of service, such as the most number of hours served.

• Total Number of Volunteers: The total number of volunteers engaged in the activities, if you were to assign all of them according to each activity, will be entered in this section. In this way, volunteers can be counted more than once- for example, if the same volunteer does two different types of activities such as mentoring AND tutoring, you can account for all assignments in this field.

TIP: When completing these worksheets and entering your volunteer numbers into the eGrants System, remember that the sum of the Number of Unduplicated Volunteers from each work plan must equal the Total Number of Unduplicated Volunteers for the project.

Volunteer Calculations:

1. The total number of unduplicated volunteers in your proposed project: ______

   1. Calculate 75% of your total unduplicated volunteers = ________ volunteers

This is the minimum number of unduplicated volunteers to be placed in Work Plans with required Output/Outcome pairs (see Step 2 below).

2. Calculate 25% of your total unduplicated volunteers = ________ volunteers

This is the maximum number of unduplicated volunteers to be placed in Work Plans with optional Outcomes (see Step 3 below).

2. Use the Output/Outcome Pair Worksheets (following on pages 3 to 11) to plan placement of a minimum of 75% of your unduplicated volunteers.

3. Use the Optional Outcome Worksheets (following on pages 12 to 15) as needed to plan placement for the remainder of your unduplicated volunteers (up to 25% of your unduplicated volunteers).

4. Once you have completed these worksheets and you are ready to enter Work Plan data into the eGrants System you may want to review the online course “How to Represent Performance Measures in eGrants”, located in the Main Conference Hall section of the Senior Corps Virtual Conference (http://www.nationalserviceresources.org/scvirtualconference).
