Dear colleagues
A personal plea from me to urge you all to undertake this very short and
well written survey. Apparently there have been no participants from
England (I've swelled that by one now!). I have just completed the
survey myself and it really does only take 10 minutes and can be
comp[lately confidential. NADO members might be especially interested as
it asks questions about work practice and conditions that you may be
interested in answering and receiving a free executive summary to see
how we fare with the rest of the world, OK the U.S. definitely.
Many thanks for reading this and I hope many of you can find time to
complete the survey.
Happy New Year
Chris

Subject: AHEAD survey- final call for participation
The Association on Higher Education And Disability (AHEAD) in
the United States has extended their online survey of staff members in
disability services (DS) offices. In the past, these types of surveys
have only included U.S. DS directors. We are making every effort to
include international colleagues.
The new deadline for participating is FRIDAY, JANUARY 23, so
there's still time!
The purpose of this survey is to collect information about all
staff providing services to disabled/deaf college and university
students.
Please encourage everyone in your office to participate, whether
part-time student workers, interpreters, or office directors. This
online survey is in English and should take about 15 minutes to
complete. You can access the survey by clicking on the link below or by
using the URL with your web browser (e.g. Netscape or Internet
Explorer).
