One of the most important criteria identified for the success of the survey program is confidentiality for the respondents. Our research and our focus groups emphasized the importance of this component. Because we want open and honest feedback, we have arranged with Wonderlic Consulting to receive the responses to the surveys directly and return the data to us already compiled.

At no time will anyone at UCR receive responses with any information to correlate to the respondent. Furthermore, data will be compiled in groups of departments and always with at least five responses to maintain confidentiality. Open-ended questions will be transcribed but, again, there will be no individual identification.
