Feedback and Survey

We welcome member and non-member input to making the ISACA-GNO Chapter the place you want to come to and participate in. The links are the same survey one in .DOC format, the other in Adobe PDF format to help us gauge the wants of our members and prospective members. Please fill out the Word document electronically and email it back to the Education Chair. as an attachment. No attempt will be made to correlate your name with the attachment (it will just be saved as respondent #1 etc). However, if total anonymity is very important to you please put the survey in an envelope and mail it to the address at the top of the survey.

Survey MS Word

Please include in the survey or send us suggestions on activities you would like to participate in to further your career. They can be anything from trying to get specific courses in the community or instructors from outside our area.

Community projects such as recycling computers, establishing IT auditing or IT security resources for small businesses, establishing a list of consultants affiliated with us, helping students find summer jobs in IT auditing/security or any other variety of activities are all possibilities.

Results of ISACA-NOLA 2007-2008 Chapter Education Survey (11 respondents)

(Numbers don’t add up to the number of survey’s received (11) because not all people put entries in all items. A '10' in Imp means 10 people entered high/agree/most important (single checkmarks were counted as Important). A '3' in Neu mean 3 people entered "neutral" to that item. A '1' in NI means 1 person entered low/disagree/not important).
