Reports in Promote provide insights into how your programs are running and how participants are engaging. While clients often appreciate seeing graphs and statistics, reports are just as valuable for admins, facilitators, and coaches in managing learning progress.

Why Use Reports
Reports help you move beyond assumptions and base your program management on actual data. They let you track progress, spot potential issues early, and demonstrate the impact of your program to stakeholders.
Common Use Cases
Here are some practical ways reports can support your work:
- Monitor overall progress – See how the program is moving forward over time and whether it’s on schedule.
- Track engagement – Use social messages and comments as indicators of how actively learners are participating.
- Check individual progress – Identify who is keeping up, who is falling behind, and who is ahead of schedule.
- Compare over time – Run reports weekly or monthly to see how engagement and progress evolve.
- Support facilitation – Facilitators can use reports to raise awareness of learners who may need extra encouragement or recognition.
Tips for Making the Most of Reports
- Use both summary and detailed reports: Start with the Program Summary Report for a big-picture view, then dive into the Learner Report to spot individual trends.
- Share with clients and stakeholders: Graphs and statistics are powerful for demonstrating program results.
- Combine with other insights: Look at reported progress alongside qualitative feedback (e.g., survey results) to get a fuller picture.
- Check regularly: Running reports at set intervals (like every Friday) makes it easier to identify trends and react quickly.
- Empower facilitators: Give facilitators access to reports so they can address issues in real time.
