Drive Change with Actionable Insight

Assessing effectiveness can be challenging for grantmaking institutions since there is no single measure of impact. CEP’s assessments harness the perspectives of key stakeholders to provide the best insight into your strengths and opportunities.

What makes CEP’s assessments so uniquely insightful?

  • Candid and Confidential Feedback: Gather vital feedback from key stakeholders through a trusted third party.

  • Rigorous Methodology: Learn about the practices most connected to effectiveness through our extensively tested and research-informed survey instrument.

  • Relevant Benchmarking: Use your results in a comparative context among data collected from hundreds of funders and a peer group of your choosing.

  • Interactive Results and Analysis: Take a deep dive into your results with our interactive online reporting system.

  • Expert Support: Let CEP’s team of experts guide you through the process, from survey design and implementation to helping you act on your results.
