Can someone enroll an activity after the reporting deadline?
Yes, an activity can be enrolled at any point during the term. Hoever, if an activity is enrolled after June 15th, it will have to be reported during the next IFMSA term.
What will happen if an activity isn't reported?
If it's a first time or replicating activity, we will simply lack data in the Programs Annual Impact Report.
If it's a continuous activity, which hasn't been enrolled for 2 consecutive terms, the activity will automatically lose its enrolled status.
What are IFMSA Programs?
An IFMSA Program is a stream of NMOs' activities coordinated centrally and addressing a predefined theme. It underpins the vision and mission of IFMSA
How many enrollment forms are there and when can an activity be enrolled?
One, unified for all 13 programs.
Whenever they want, after the launch of the enrollment form in October. It can be before, during or after the implementation of an activity, but ideally 4 weeks before the start of the activity.
When does activities reporting happen?
After the activity has been completed. IFMSA's standard practice so far has been to open the report form during May and June.
Is there a workshop dedicated to activity management?
Yes, SMART and AMOC.
Can an NMO enroll the SCORA sessions conducted in an NMO meeting?
No. SCORA sessions do not usually fulfil the criteria set for activities to be accepted in IFMSA programs (as specified for activities in the Theory of Change). They can, however, be submitted in the SCORA Activities Database.
