The Association of Research Libraries (ARL) has announced that online registration is now open for the 2012 ClimateQUAL Webcast, a free workshop designed to provide potential and current participants with vital information on the ClimateQUAL service. The ClimateQUAL service is a survey protocol capturing data on Organizational Climate and Diversity Assessment (OCDA). This one-hour webcast will provide practical information for administering a survey, help participants with interpreting the data and its analysis, and share best practices in using the results.
The webcast will feature Paul Hanges (Maryland), the lead researcher of the ClimateQUAL protocol, who will cover the fundamental tenets of the protocol, and David Green (ARL), who will highlight important implementation steps. Jay Schafer (Massachusetts), Jean Zanoni (Marquette), and Sue Baughman (ARL) will discuss the drivers of this assessment and follow-up actions based on the survey results. Martha Kyrillidou (ARL) will host and facilitate the event. Q&A will be available through an online bulletin board.
Interested parties may register online for the ClimateQUAL Webcast, to be held on April 17 at 1:00 p.m. EDT. The webcast will be recorded and made freely available on ARL's YouTube channel.
The ClimateQUAL Webcast is part of the 2012 ARL Statistics & Assessment Webcast Series. A free recording of the LibQUAL+ Webcast is available on the ARL YouTube Channel.
