Exit Survey
 
 
Dear THR Leader:
You are invited to participate in our 2013 Needs Assessment. In this survey, we are asking THR employees at all levels of the organization to reflect upon their needs in terms of current and future learning. It will take approximately 15 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this project. However, if you feel uncomfortable answering any questions, you can withdraw from the survey at any point. It is very important for us to learn your opinions.

Your survey responses will be strictly confidential and data from this research will be reported only in the aggregate. Your information will be coded and will remain confidential. Information will ultimately be assessed, reported, and discussed in light of future THR strategy. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact Daniel Gandarilla at 682.236.6514 or by email at the email address specified below.
