Doug, thanks for setting this up and getting things rolling. I think it will be a valuable resource as time goes on.
If anyone has any questions about accessing the CREC Staffing Survey, feel free to contact me at kennedyt@plainvilleschools.org I am interested in knowing how the data ends up being used. Will you use it to build a case for additional staffing by presenting it to you superintendent or school board? Was it valuable in making your case? What data was missing from it?
Also, as far as I am concerned, its not too early to begin suggesting topics for another survey or for refining the questions used in this one. I am open to hearing from anyone.

Let me echo Jon's kudos for the survey, Tom. This is great work and really useful data.
Part of our discussion at today's Technology Council included the need to have other survey data that speak to the applications in use throughout our region, so we have a sense of the peers we can tap with questions about support, maintenance, or customization of software. We'll be looking to move this forward in the coming weeks.
Thanks again, Tom.
Tom - I just wanted to say thanks to you for putting the survey together. It is about time that we got something solid together for IT professionals in the world of education. Much appreciated. I do think that we need the data to be more specialized. I think there is a HUGE need to better define job roles for IT professionals in the field of education in order to help demonstrate and educate district leadership.
Doug, I am quite willing to set up additional surveys and run them on our server. However, if you or Scott feel the need to pull them "in house" at some point, I won't be offended. Otherwise, I'm happy to work with anyone to help create a survey on any topic that might provide needed data.
Thanks for the offer to host future surveys. We will likely take care of this at CREC, as we have several tools that we can leverage for this purpose. I do appreciate the offer!
