Warren Forest Higher Education Council Launches Educational Needs Assessment Surveys
The Warren Forest Higher Education Council is taking proactive steps to better understand the educational needs of the community by launching two surveys — one for individuals and one for businesses.
Joan Stitzinger, the executive director at Warren Forest Higher Education Council, emphasized the importance of every voice in the journey towards educational excellence and equity. The Education Needs Assessment Surveys aim to provide a platform for individuals and businesses to express their perspectives and help prioritize efforts in enhancing educational opportunities for everyone.
The survey for individuals focuses on gathering insights directly from residents across Warren County on topics such as access to educational resources and facilities, challenges faced by adults in accessing education, desired areas for improvement in the post-secondary education system, and suggestions for improving the alignment between education and workforce needs.
Businesses are also encouraged to participate in the survey to identify areas where collaboration between the education sector and the business community can lead to innovative solutions and enhanced educational outcomes.
By participating in the surveys, community members have the opportunity to voice their opinions, share their experiences, and contribute to shaping the future of education in the community. The insights gathered will inform the development of strategies and policies aimed at addressing identified needs and fostering a more inclusive and supportive learning environment for all.
Individuals and businesses can access the surveys online at Hi-Ed.org. This initiative underscores the commitment of the Warren Forest Higher Education Council to continuously adapt and improve educational programs and initiatives to meet the evolving needs of the community.
