Hello:
A key initiative in Texas Health Resources Summit Strategy is to build a dynamic learning organization. One of the action plans supporting this initiative is a comprehensive, System-Wide Education and Learning Needs Assessment.
For this survey, a random selection of participants have been designated to participate and complete a survey which asks specific questions focused on current and future learning needs. The results of the System-Wide Education and Learning Needs Assessment will be shared with senior leadership for continued support as Texas Health Resource University focuses on creating a robust and innovative learning system for the entire workforce while focusing on the voice of the customer.
You are invited to participate in the online THRU Education and Learning Needs Assessment survey.
It will take approximately 15-25 minutes to complete depending on your position and role.
To minimize potential loss of anonymity or confidentiality, all responses will be aggregated, and no personal identifying information will be collected. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact us by email at [email protected].
Thank you very much for your time and support in conducting the largest Education and Learning Needs Assessment for Texas Health Resources.
Please start with the survey now by clicking on the Continue button below.
