Contact Point’s 2005 Survey Results Are In!

Contact Point is pleased to announce that the preliminary results from the 2005 survey are now available. Once again, we collaborated with our french language site, OrientAction to develop a survey with questions that would help us better understand the career practitioners who use Contact Point and OrientAction. This year we worked at making the survey smaller and less time-intensive, yet still asking some interesting questions of those in the field. We also asked respondents to provide suggestions for the topics they would like to see covered on Contact Point and OrientAction. We will use those responses to target our content on the website and upcoming issues of our newsletters. We would like to thank all of the survey participants who took the time to fill out the questions and provide their comments.
