Your Agency Members Survey

This is the SAMPLE Survey Page for Your Agency. This survey is being conducted in advance to an upcoming supervisory engagement training program with your agency.

Your sincere responses are highly desired by both Secure 1776 and your agency. Each training participant is also being asked to participate in this survey as a more confidential means of efficiently gathering a sense of the overall group’s per-training baseline. This survey is intended to enhance your training experience. Your responses will also help provide essential feedback to those holding formal leadership positions within your agency.

Secure 1776 will provide a summary of the survey results, but will not provide information to your agency that identifies you with your responses. Combined summary information and analysis drawn from all of the survey responses will be used to facilitate discussions during the training session.

Even though you have been requested by your agency to complete this survey, your participation remains completely voluntary. As you proceed through the survey, you will have the ability to revise those responses. So as to relieve any participant concerns, among the survey response options will be: “no answer” or “I prefer not to answer.”

Your responses are understood to be only your initial thoughts on the questions asked, and before participating in the associated training session. Opinions can change with additional information, experiences, study, reflection, and the passage of time.
