Export Data
Export data from any PEARS module into Excel spreadsheets for additional analysis.

From the PEARS homepage, open the appropriate menu (Plan, Engage, Reflect, or Analyze) and select the module you want to export from.

Filter your data
Use the filter and search tools on the list view to refine which records will be included in the export.
TIP: The export includes only the records that match your current filter and search criteria. Adjust filters before exporting to control the data set.
