Spring 2010 Faculty & Staff Survey

VCU Technology Services conducted a satisfaction survey of VCU faculty and staff, spring 2010, using the TechQual + survey instrument. TechQual+ is a young 4 year old survey based on the same methodology used successfully for many years by the Association of Research Libraries’ LibQUAL+ survey. While the relative immaturity of the TechQual+ project means that the results are unlikely to be as reliable as LibQUAL+, the survey does provide us with insights into where we need to concentrate on improving services.

 This same survey instrument was used to survey VCU faculty and staff in fall 2008. While there are still areas needing improvement, we are pleased that for every question in the survey, the perceived level of service delivered improved from last year’s survey. Three of the six items identified in last year’s survey as most needing improvement, “Consistency in problem resolution”, “Banner usability”, and “Macintosh support” did not show up as significant issues in this year’s analysis. Results from last year’s survey along with the conclusions and action plans that were updated as promised throughout the year can be found in links on the right.
