College!NOW Employer Survey |
INTRODUCTION
This survey is intended to gather business stakeholder insights that will allow the two-year colleges of the Montana University System and the College!NOW team with the Office of the Commissioner of Higher Education to better understand the mindset and interests of employers throughout Montana. The survey will help us learn more about how the two-year colleges in the Montana University System can be more responsive to the needs of local businesses and communicate the overall results of the College!NOW Initiative more effectively to employers.
As part of Montana’s College!NOW initiative supported by the Lumina Foundation, the Montana University System is renaming Montana’s five Colleges of Technology (COTs). Renaming and rebranding the five COTs is part of a larger initiative to extend the comprehensive mission of two-year higher education to the state’s COTs. On March 2nd, 2012, the Board of Regents voted on a new name framework for the Colleges of Technology. This new name framework will display the Place identifier first, followed by the Mission as represented by the word “college”, and followed by Affiliation identifying the college’s parent university. Example: “Centerville College UNC”.
Recognizing that renaming and rebranding the five COTs in the state will have a lasting impact on the face of two-year higher education in Montana, the Office of the Commissioner of Higher Education has taken great care to consider input from a broad range of stakeholders who will be impacted by the change.
This survey is part of a research study conducted by a 3rd party research firm, Strategies 360 Montana. All responses to this survey will be collected anonymously. All user content provided in this survey will be used for research purposes only. Participation in the survey is optional and voluntary.
This survey will take approximately 5 minutes to complete. This survey will be open from March 29th to April 25th 2012.
