INSTRUCTIONS FOR DAILY, WEEKLY & MONTHLY REPORTING

We have updated the Weekly & Monthly report formats considering your previous reports. Many of you have used the previous versions of formats and altered them according to Supervisor’s feedback.

Below are a few instructions on how to prepare your reports as some of you are still struggling to identify Theme, Project, Program & Infrastructure.

Note: Please use the given template/format when you do your reporting. Do not try to alter the format. Do not try to create your own versions.

We have provided two application formats to do your Monthly & Weekly report. These are in Word & Excel formats. You can use either WORD format for this purpose.

You can find these formats in the Online Collaborative Work (OCW) Trello board. Please find the link below
