Reporting Requirements
The Freshwater Collaborative is currently collecting annual evaluation data for ongoing projects. The data collected from this survey will be used to communicate the collective work of the Freshwater Collaborative to its academic, community, governmental, and industry partners as well as to the Wisconsin State Legislature.
Each PI with a currently funded project will receive an email from noreply@qualtrics.uwm.edu that includes a custom link to a survey specific to their project. If you do not receive a link by September 6, please email rfp-questions@uwm.edu. The survey is due by October 1, 2023.
The PDF below provides the survey questions you will be asked.
