Reporting Decision Tree
A visual guide to help you choose the right PEARS module for reporting your activities.
The Reporting Decision Tree is a downloadable PDF resource that helps you determine which PEARS module to use when documenting your work. Use this guide when you are unsure whether an activity should be reported as a Program Activity, Indirect Activity, PSE Site Activity, Partnership, Coalition, or another record type.
How to Use the Decision Tree
The decision tree walks you through a series of questions about the nature of your work:
What type of activity did you conduct? — Determines whether you are reporting direct education, indirect outreach, policy/systems/environmental work, or organizational relationships.
Who was involved? — Helps distinguish between partnerships (two-party relationships) and coalitions (multi-party groups).
What was the delivery method? — Guides you to the correct module based on how the activity was delivered.
Follow the branches from your starting point to arrive at the recommended module for your record.
