INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE IN INSTITUTIONAL POLICY SURVEY Further to our interviews with key policy managers (all done, thank you!), I am very happy to invite you all to participate in an online survey about United States institutional policy. The survey is being conducted as part of the Institutional Policy Project to explore arrangements regarding policy in higher education institutions in the United States. The survey briefly explores key elements of institutional policy, that is, policy on policy or meta-policy, instruments, approval authorities, the policy cycle, professional development, the policy library and website, and policy management. The survey is for research purposes, and the results will be fed back to the ACUPA community, and to higher education institutional and policy managers, and most importantly, policy practitioners. The results will be formally published and used to identify good practices to support improvements in institutional policy. All survey questions are optional, and all information provided will be anonymised. The online survey will take approximately 20 minutes. Additional information regarding this survey and the Institutional Policy Project more generally is available from: Brigid Freeman (email) [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> or (mobile) +1 (510) 599-1492 To access the survey – please go to: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IPS_US_2013 The survey will be open until mid April, 2014 ... but don't let that stop you doing it TODAY :O)
