<br /> EMPG Program Appendix | 2023 Page H-39 <br />tool to plan and track the progress of key project activities and associated tasks. Key project activities <br />should generally correlate with the “Milestones” identified for each project included in the Grant <br />Activities Outline. <br />The Implementation Schedule enables the applicant to identify key project activities by year/quarter, the <br />associated tasks, timelines, status reports, and challenges or risks that may affect successful completion of <br />the activity as planned. It also allows for the tracking of project progress by including estimated and <br />actual completion dates for each activity and the ability to enter quarterly accomplishments relating to the <br />activity. This functionality allows for quarterly reporting of project progress, in accordance with the <br />programmatic requirements of the EMPG Program. Also, data from the Implementation Schedule should <br />be completed and submitted to FEMA as a component of quarterly reporting on grant activities. <br />The Implementation Schedule further allows the applicant to explain how their project addresses equity <br />considerations. Possible examples include: 1) conducting vulnerability assessments to identify and fully <br />understand the vulnerabilities and needs of underserved communities relating to emergency preparedness; <br />and 2) updating emergency operations plans to ensure the needs of underserved communities are <br />adequately addressed. <br />The Implementation Schedule also provides the applicant with the ability to explain how their project <br />addresses the impacts of climate change. <br />Training Data Table <br />To facilitate consistent data reporting and performance measures collection, the FY 2023 EMPG Program <br />Work Plan Template includes a Training Data Table. This table should reflect training activities outlined in <br />the multi-year IPP and completion of required EMPG Program training courses. The data requirements are <br />defined in the section below. Applicants/recipients are not required to report EMPG Program-funded <br />personnel costs associated with training. Training related to the NQS is not reported on the Training Data <br />Table. Also, data from the Training Data Table should be completed and submitted to FEMA as a <br />component of quarterly reporting on grant activities. Upon entering the project name or number in the <br />template, the cells located to the right of the main Training Data Table will auto-populate the associated <br />priority, mission area, capabilities, and functional areas based on the project data included in the Grant <br />Activities Outline. <br />Training Data Table Template <br />Project <br />Number <br />Project <br />Name <br />Name of <br />Training <br />Scheduled <br />Date <br />Date <br />Training <br />was <br />Conducted/ <br />Completed <br />EMPG <br />Program <br />Required <br />Training? <br />(Y/N) <br />Number <br />of <br />Personnel <br />Trained <br />NIMS Training <br />Course Number <br />(if applicable) <br />Training <br />Identified <br />in IPP <br />(Y/N) <br />Training Data Table Definitions <br />• Column 1 – Project Number from the Grant Activities Outline <br />• Column 2 – Project Name from the Grant Activities Outline <br />• Column 3 – Name of training course <br />• Column 4 – Scheduled date of training course <br />• Column 5 – Date training was conducted or completed <br />• Column 6 – Is the training course required by the EMPG Program? <br />• Column 7 – Number of personnel trained <br />• Column 8 – NIMS Training Course Number (if applicable)
