Assurance

[Ann West <>]

All,

Just a reminder to take the Assurance Survey. We've extended the deadline

until this Friday after noting that a number of you have started, but not finished,

adding your information. 

If you'd like to review the pdf, please visit the Assurance Wiki

Best,

Ann

InCommon and its Assurance Advisory Committee (AAC) is developing 

an outreach and education plan to help campuses with their Bronze and 

Silver implementations. But we need to hear from you about where your 

challenges are so we can use our time to produce programs where you 

need it most. 

By **July 20th**, please spend about 20 minutes and take a 
short survey. Once you start the survey, you can return to it 
for up to a week. Here's the link:

We will keep the responses confidential, but will publish an
anonymized list of the primary challenges and then start working
with you on suggestions for addressing those gaps. If needed, 

we may assemble working groups on specific criterium and invite 
those schools who have listed the criterium as an issue to participate.

As a side note, our friends at the CIC institutions
(the Big Ten schools and the University of Chicago) developed 
the survey for their own use. They have graciously offered to 

allow all InCommon participants to take part and have set up

the same survey for the broader community. If you're a member

of a CIC institution, you don't need to fill out this version.

You can find background information about the assurance program, as
well as the key foundational documents, at assurance.incommon.org.

Thank you for considering participating in the survey.
