Importance of Subgroups in WebNEERS
Adult Subgroups
What is a Subgroup?
- Subgroups are used to categorize adult participants or youth groups in WebNEERS so data can be generated later to see a groups outcomes, etc.
- Adult and youth groups have their own separate sets of subgroups – and one participant or class can be a part of multiple different subgroups.
Youth Subgroups
Benefits of Subgroups
- Allows for data to be categorized and easily accessed
- Allows filters to be created so reports can be pulled for select groups of participants
- Reports can be shared with program partners to share with their stakeholders and are useful tools during interpretation and the recruitment process.
Types of Subgroups
Regional = Regional level subgroups are created specifically on a county-by-county basis. These can be used to categorize participants into smaller and more specific groups – like by school or curriculum taught
Institute = Institute level subgroups are created by the State Office and are listed on the Adult Educator Exit Form and 4-H Group Enrollment Form
Adding New Regional Subgroups
- Before adding a new Regional Subgroup – be sure to have a discussion as a county to decide which subgroups are right for you. Having subgroups can be an extremely useful tool, BUT too many subgroups can also become overwhelming from both a paperwork and a data entry perspective.
- Adding new subgroups can be done either by the LOA or State Office staff.
- Best practice would be to create new subgroups BEFORE data entry begins in the next fiscal year – however if an idea for a new subgroup comes up mid-year you can add one at any time.
Adult “Subgroup” VS “Adult Groups”
- Subgroups: group people together for a specific reason or activity
- For example – Curriculum type, School districts, etc.
- Participants can be in multiple subgroups
- Adult Groups: group adults together based on their naturally occurring group
- For example – Avance or Urban Harvest or other large recurring partnerships
- Participants can only be in one group
