How to View Results

One of the most important reasons for doing whole-population survey is to not only give a snapshot of respondent’s attitudes, but to give every staff member an opportunity to add their voice.  It's important that we reach out to all staff.

Each department will share the survey results with its staff - both what seems to be working well and what appears to need improvement. Survey results will also be posted on this website.

Statistical Reports 

The results of the survey will be available for departments/units providing at least 5 respondents. Unit responses will be further summarized at the VC level and then ultimately at the campus-wide level. In reviewing results, we will see what we do well, what things are improving, and what needs extra attention.

Divisions, departments, programs, and units may review their individual survey results and may address areas identified as needing attention that are unique to that unit. Those areas that need special attention are prioritized, and a plan for making improvements is developed for the next fiscal year. Departments participate by setting performance goals and developing action plans for achieving the goals.

Verbatim Comments 

The verbatim comments provide valuable insight into the thoughts and feelings of staff.  Comments are reported by group; if there are fewer than 5 respondents to the survey in any group, comments are rolled up into the next group level to maintain a higher level of anonymity.  Survey administrators will receive the comments in themes only.

***Raw verbatim comments will not be shared with anyone except with Human Resources and Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion, who are the guardians of this data. This process is to allow the institution to safeguard the comments and preserve the trust that employees have in providing candor. If senior leaders want to see the actual comments, they will need to make a request directly to HR Labor Relations.
