Faculty Survey Results – Q1 2024

TL;DR: A survey was conducted among the Training Team Faculty members to gain insights into their experiences and perspectives. Main takeaways are to continue improving documentation, collaboration, and communication. Improvements to Faculty onboarding are also suggested.

As we established last year, a regular check in with all Faculty members was conducted again this year to gain insight into their experiences and perspectives on the Faculty program. This also included asking their estimated amount of contribution hours they could dedicate to Faculty tasks, so we could determine if there is a need to train new Faculty members.

Faculty check-ins were accomplished by sharing a check-in survey with Faculty members. This post serves to share the findings and insight from the survey.
