Progress Report
Grant FEL-XXXXXX-XX

Provide information about the progress of your grant by answering the questions below. The questions are separated
into sections that may be accessed directly using the buttons at the top; to proceed to the next section, click
the Next button. Your work will be saved automatically each time you click Next. To submit the information to NEH to
meet your reporting requirements, go to the Submit section.
Please note: your Progress Report information exists for the life of your grant. Submitting information takes a
"snapshot" of the information for a particular reporting period.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS: What was done? What was learned?
The information provided in this section allows the awarding agency to assess whether satisfactory
progress was made during the reporting period.
What were the major goals of the project?
List the major goals of the project as stated in the approved application or as approved by the agency, including the

technological objectives of this effort. Describe the proposed technical approach to obtain those goals. If the application
listed milestones/target dates for important activities or phases of the project, identify these dates and show actual
completion dates or the percentage of completion. Generally, the goals will not change from one reporting period to the
next and are unlikely to change during the final reporting period. However, if NEH approved changes to the goals during
the reporting period, list the revised goals and objectives. Also explain any significant changes in approach or methods
from the agency-approved application or plan.

What was accomplished under these goals?
For this reporting period describe: 1) major activities; 2) specific objectives; 3) significant results or key outcomes,
including major findings, developments, or conclusions (both positive and negative); and/or 4) other achievements.
Include a discussion of stated goals not met. As the project progresses to completion, the emphasis in reporting in this
section should shift from reporting activities to reporting accomplishments.
Special Instructions: Please also 1) explain what difference the grant has made to your project. For example, has it enabled
significant additional research or writing, or otherwise improved the project's quality or reach? 2) Has either your understanding of
your subject or your approach to it changed significantly as a result of the work conducted under your award? Is so, in what way? 3)
To what extent will you be able to continue work on the project after the grant period? Indicate what, if any, work remains in order to
bring your project to completion and the schedule on which you expect to complete that work.

How were the results disseminated to communities of interest?
If there is nothing significant to report during this reporting period, state "Nothing to Report."
Describe how the results were disseminated to communities of interest. Include any outreach activities that were
undertaken to reach members of communities who are not usually aware of these project activities for the purpose of
enhancing public understanding and increasing interest in learning and careers in the humanities.
Special Instructions: Also provide an update on your current publication plans, including whether you have a contract for publication,
the publisher's name, and the anticipated date of publication.

Describe partner organizations -- academic institutions, other nonprofits, industrial or commercial firms, state or local
governments, schools or school systems, or other organizations (foreign or domestic) -- that were involved with the
project. Partner organizations may have provided financial or in-kind support, supplied facilities or equipment,
collaborated in the research, exchanged personnel, or otherwise contributed.
Provide the following information for each partnership:
Organization Name
Location of Organization: (if foreign location list country)
Partner’s contribution to the project (identify one or more):
•
•

Financial support;
In-kind support (e.g., partner made software, computers, equipment, etc., available to project staff);
Facilities (e.g., project staff used the partner's facilities for project activities);
Collaboration (e.g., partner's staff worked with project staff on the project);
Personnel exchanges (e.g., project staff and/or partner's staff used each other's facilities, worked at each other's
site); and
Other.

More detail on partner and contribution (foreign or domestic).
Special Instructions: 1) For the NEH grant term you have just completed, did your employer or another grant-making entity provide
additional support for work on your NEH-sponsored project? If so, please indicate amounts and, if applicable, any specific purposes
for which this money was earmarked (e.g., travel, supplies, research assistance). 2) What is the sabbatical or similar leave policy at
your place of employment (if any)?

IMPACT: What was the impact of the project? How did it contribute?
The taxpaying public and its representatives deserve a periodic assessment to show them how the
investments they make benefit the nation. Through this reporting format, and especially this section,
recipients provide that assessment.
NEH uses this information to assess how well our grant programs
•
•
•
•
•

strengthen teaching and learning in schools and colleges,
facilitate research and original scholarship,
provide opportunities for lifelong learning,
preserve and provide access to cultural and educational resources, and
strengthen the institutional base of the humanities

This component is used to describe ways in which the work, findings, and specific products of the
project had an impact during this reporting period. Describe distinctive contributions, major
accomplishments, innovations, successes, or any change in practice that came about as a result of
the project relative to:
•
•
•

If there is nothing significant to report during this reporting period, state "Nothing to Report."

Describe how findings, results, techniques that were developed or extended, or other products from the project made an
impact or are likely to make an impact on the base of knowledge, theory, and research in the principal disciplinary
field(s) of the project. Summarize using language that a lay audience can understand.
How the field or discipline is defined is not as important as covering the impact the work has had on knowledge and
technique. Make the best distinction possible, for example, by using a field or discipline, if appropriate, that corresponds
with a single academic department.
Special Instructions: How do you see your project making a difference in your field?

What was the impact on other disciplines?
If there is nothing significant to report during this reporting period, state "Nothing to Report."

PROJECT OUTCOMES: What were the outcomes of the award?
Agencies use this information at the completion of the award to ascertain the cumulative outcomes or
findings of a project. Describe project outcomes specifically for the public to provide insight into the
outcomes of Federally-funded research, education, and other activities. Agencies may make this
information available to the public in an electronic format.
This component is used to provide information regarding the cumulative outcomes or findings of the
project. For the final RPPR for the project, provide a concise summary of the outcomes or findings of
the award (no more than 8,000 characters) that:
•
•
•

is written for the general public in clear, concise, and comprehensible language;

PRODUCTS
Agencies evaluate what the grant products demonstrate about the excellence and significance of the project and the
efficacy with which the results were communicated to colleagues, potential users, and the public, not the number of
products. Many projects (though not all) develop significant products other than publications. Agencies assess and
report both publications and other products to Congress, communities of interest, and the public.
Enter any products resulting from the project during the reporting period. It is typical in the humanities for products to be
produced well after the grant period. As new products become available, please return to the database to enter
additional products, prizes, or media coverage.
No grant products have been entered.
