We’d like to invite you to participate in a study to better understand how faculty and staff are using experiential learning and high-impact learning practices. The study is being conducted by the American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U), the Society for Experiential Education (SEE) and the National Association of Colleges and Employer (NACE). It is expanding on the work they did last year on Faculty Attitudes and Behaviors: The Integration of Career Readiness Into the Curriculum.

AAC&U, NACE and SEE will utilize findings to inform a deeper understanding of current practices involving experiential learning/high-impact practices linked to career preparation, as well as to create resources and programs to promote innovation for faculty, staff, and institutions of higher education.

We hope that you’ll complete this short survey.

· This survey should take less than 8 minutes to complete.
· Your responses are saved every time you advance to the next page.
· You can leave and return to the survey where you left off as long as you use the same computer or device.
· The survey will remain open throughout fall 2024 until December 31, 2024, although we encourage completion of the survey as soon as possible!

Please be sure to add your name and email at the end of the survey, if you would like to enter drawings for five (5) prizes of $100 Amazon gift cards. The associations will notify the winners in early January 2025.

Confidentiality of the data: NACE and AAC&U and SEE will keep your responses confidential. Individual responses will be aggregated and summarized.

Thank you in advance If enough people from UMass Lowell respond, we’ll receive a free campus report of findings.
