Grantee and Applicant Perception Report
Benchmarked Feedback to Drive Improvement
Partner with CEP to bring the candid perspectives of your grantees and applicants to the table.
Grantee and Applicant Perception Report
The Grantee Perception Report (GPR) is the only grantee survey that puts your results in a comparative context with your peers. Through an easy-to-implement, confidential online survey, the GPR allows funders to learn from actionable insights based on truly candid and reliable grantee feedback.
For funders with open application processes, using the GPR in tandem with CEP’s Applicant Perception Report (APR) allows you to gain a comprehensive understanding of both grantees’ and declined applicants’ experiences with your interactions and processes.
Survey themes include:
Impact on grantees’ fields, communities, and organizations
Understanding of intended beneficiaries and challenges
Interactions and communications with grantees
Application, reporting, and evaluation processes
Capacity building and assistance beyond the grant
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Demographic characteristics
Custom questions that reflect your unique context
