DPA Members' Survey launches this week

15 Feb 2006

DPA will launch its 2006 Member’s Survey this week. The survey is broken up into six key areas: General company information; Your view on the future; Key challenges; Investment in databases; Operations and Plans and strategy. The survey will help the Board shape the DPA going forward and the findings will also be reported and discussed at the DPA Annual Conference in May.

Why does the DPA need this information?
1) It will help the Board and Secretariat to tailor and improve the services it offers its members.
By finding out what your real day-to-day needs are from the association, we can cater our services to make this a more valuable association to you.

2) The results will help us better represent the industry at UK and EU level.
From time to time, issues arise where we are asked to demonstrate the size, value and reach of our industry, without knowing the full extent of your activities and how these change year-on-year, we do not have the information to truly represent you.

3) The results, which you will have access to, will allow you to benchmark yourself against your peers.
Do you know how you compare as an employer against your peers? Areas of this research will help benchmark you against the rest of the industry.

This online survey, courtesy of Demographix, will be emailed to main-member contacts.

The deadline for completion is 3 March.
