November 2009 Survey Monkey Results

submitted by Jennifer Beach, President -- WADE Board Retreat Survey November 2009

 1. Your WADE Board is discussing the use of the current website to offer CEU credits. An example would be to digitally record an educational program and offer it on the website for credit. This would primarily be done as a benefit for members although WADE would probably let nonmembers utilize this also for a higher fee. Is this something you would use?

YES 100.0%                             NO 0.0%

2. If yes, what is the most you would pay per 1.0 hour of credit? Assume the content and speaker is highly interesting to you.

$5-10 à  12.5%                      $15-20  à 37.5%                    $25-30 à 37.5%
$35-40 à 0.0%                       $45-50 à 12.5%                     more than $50à  0.0%

3. Depending on the cost of making the recordings, WADE could lose $ on the venture.
       I think WADE should do this eve if WADE will pay more than it earns. 12.5%
       I think WADE should do this only if WADE is likely to break even. 62.5%
      I think that WADE should not dot his unless it likely that WADE will not lose $. 25.0%

4. For the past 2 years, the AADE Annual meeting session's MP3 audio files have been purchased and placed in the WADE lending library for members who want to borrow. There has not been much interest thus far, however, from members to borrow these. Do you think WADE should continue to purchase these as a  member benefit despite not much interest?

Yes à 50.0%               Noà 50.0%

5. The WADE board is finalizing the Karen Goldstein Memorial fund. It will grant money for WADE to fund outstanding, nationally-recognized speakers at future annual conferences. The first speaker will be Irl Hirsch at the 2010 WADE Annual Conference. Did you know that you can still contribute to this fund by going to Karen Goldstein Memorial Fund.
