Summer Season 2005/6 Survey Results
These are interim results and will be updated from time to time. Further analysis of the results will also take place. At this stage, it would be unfair to identify specific areas as underperforming, although certain trends do seem to be emerging.
The number of respondents to date is lower than was received for previous surveys. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, these responses are the result of CapeInfo's newsletter and a Fedhasa email to members. CTRU's email to RTO's and LTO's to request members' participation was only due to go out on January 20.
Secondly, previous surveys were email surveys, which are obviously easier to respond to. This survey required that respondents go online to complete the form. (CTRU's webmaster was damning in his criticism of CapeInfo's use of email surveys... but the lower response to an online survey proves our point.)
If you haven't completed the survey, you can still do so. Please do visit this page again.
