Best Practices | JC Student Surveys

Sent email reminders to students’ job corps email addresses, excused students from sst’s in lieu if they could prove they took the survey and offered donuts and coffee to students who completed the survey by a certain day.
Daily reminders, classroom visits, asking students to participate in completing the survey. Using EWS time to have students fill out the survey.
Ace incentive points when student forwards their “thank you” email to DCD. CMT Team competition for highest completion percentage.
SEA survey promotional data was used, targeted goal temperature gauge showing the daily results toward pizza party along with 1 day 1.5 hour early departure.
Student notifications through email about the upcoming survey, promotions at student business, promotions at roll call/Accountability meetings.
We hold a raffle for all participants to obtain a monetary incentive. We also put out posters throughout the center. At the all staff/Student business meeting, we talk to students that this is their survey to talk to regarding their experience here on center.
Incentives for all participants; Raffle monetary incentives to 20 students who participated, posters all around the center; Speaking to students in classroom/Vocations that this survey is about their experience here at job corps and how can we make it better.
We set aside a few minutes during the day for each class to take the survey. We have found that giving them a set time to take it has increased our participation. The CD reminds the students during the assembly that the survey is coming up and a special lunch is given to the entire student body if the goal is reached.
Flyers, announcements at assembly, multiple emails, donuts, cupcakes, instructor reminders.
We gave students a candy bag to those students that completed survey. Those students were also entered a raffle for a chance to win one of three gift baskets. Once a student completed survey and picked up candy bag we would highlight their name, this would show which students were pending to complete survey. Counselors would send student reminders to encourage all to open and complete survey. Instructors allowed students the first 15 minutes of class to check their emails for survey.
Prepped and explained during weekly assemblies, offered substantial incentive if center reached goal.
Promotions and informational flyers, announcements at assemblies, raffle for everyone who participated at the end for a grand prize.
Assembly, posters, community meetings, classroom visits
We had candy available when students completed survey. We had a raffle with electronic prizes. If students reached 80%, which we did, then we would have a pizza party and if they reached 90%, which we did, they would have a nice catered meal of their choosing.
We set a goal of 80% student participation. If we achieved that goal the students would get a pizza party.
We provide treats and rewards for students who complete their surveys. We also do different rewards for center-wide participation.
