Local 105 Training Needs Survey

Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey! The goal is to find out, directly from members, what type of professional development, training, and education you are interested in.

This survey is anonymous, so no need to share your name or NUID with us, unless you want to, or unless you are in Medical Imaging (see note below). Required questions are denoted with a red asterisk. We will share the overall results with your union, Local 105, and your employer, Kaiser Colorado. Together, we will use the information you give us to collaborate on future projects.

While the survey is anonymous, we do ask that you enter your job title and department, as this will help us assess needs based on job families and departments. You can expect to spend 5-10 minutes filling it out, depending on your responses.

NOTE: If you are Medical Imaging staff, you will be asked additional questions around modality training. Please answer question 13 to trigger the additional questions. We are currently working with labor and management to offer additional financial support to those who trained or will train for an additional modality. As such, we ask that you provide your name and contact info with us.
