Reminder: Q2 Metrics Due Date Approaching

Posted on by Amanda Bachmann

Metrics for events between July 1 and September 30 (Q3) will be due by April 30. This will be a hard deadline. The Metrics Committee recommends that you keep track of your chapter activities. The following details should enable a smooth process once the new forms are available. Note: you do not need to track hours anymore.

  • Date of activity or event
  • Title of activity or event
  • Number of U.S. WIN members that participated
  • Who the audience was for the event
  • Number of public that attended
  • Description of the event for validation & awards consideration

Each quarter, your chapter’s metrics must be submitted on time to qualify for the Chapter Excellence Awards. Please note that submitting a blank form is sufficient to keep the chapter in good standing for awards. If your metrics contact has changed for your site, please notify the Metrics Committee at win.metrics@gmail.com.

This program is for individuals in search of community and advanced studies in self- awareness, self-confidence, and self-value. NEXT UP is an inspired, accelerated, and immersive program where we explore Imposter Syndrome, and uncover your unique values, beliefs, fears, and superpowers. We will help define what you want next and how to go after it.
