7. Participant, Host Agency Supervisor, and Employer Surveys been around since 2004
In fact, they used to be a real performance measure ( ) but in 2007, Congress changed them to additional indicators

8. It is great news that they are Performance Measures Again!
Why? We do well on these measures.
This webinar is to help focus us on this opportunity to do well.
Focus on the “how to” of these measures.

9. What is the ACSI?
ACSI – stands for American Customer Satisfaction Survey Index
 The ACSI is the nation's only cross-industry measure of customer satisfaction, gives businesses science-based insights across the complete arc of the customer experience.
We can compare SCSEP to other industries or companies, such as Amazon or Starbuck

12. Processes
DOL oversees the process for both the annual Participant and Host Agency Supervisor Satisfaction Surveys
DOL drives the bus
SSAI oversees the process for the Employer Satisfaction Surveys

13. Tactics to Achieving Participant and Host Agency Survey Goals
Tactic #1 – Review all s from SSAI promptly and prioritize action requested
Tactic #2 – Communicate regularly with your participants and supervisors that surveys are coming
Anonymous – Neither SSAI or you see responses
Important to future of SCSEP

14. Steps to Achieve Goals
1. In August, DOL draws sample. (We ensure addresses for participants and host agencies are correct and most current in SPARQ)
2. Prepare for pre-survey letter mailing

15. Steps (continued)
3. DOL will send us list of participants selected to be in the participant survey sample 4. Complete your pre-survey letters 5. Mail your pre-survey letters when DOL says “mail” 6. DOL will mail surveys, and participants and supervisors will complete and mail them to Charter Oak Group 7. DOL will repeat #6 up to two more times

16. Bad Addresses
Since the surveys are sent by DOL on SSAI letterhead, SSAI HQ receives surveys undeliverable by the post office
We contact you to see if there is an another address
We r the survey
We let DOL know of the address update

19. Employer Satisfaction Surveys
No goal for PY18 – baseline year What do you need to know?

20. This process is driven by the employer, not the participant.
Not all employers get employer surveys
Qualifying employers only get 1 survey every 12 months

21. Section 900E of PPM What is a Qualifying Employer?
Employers must have received substantial services from a SCSEP project – which means the sponsor answered “Yes” to question #21 on the SCSEP Unsubsidized Employment Form (“Was the placement the result of a substantial service to the employer by the sub-grantee?”).
Employers must NOT be host agencies; which means the sponsor answered “No” to question #7 on the SCSEP Unsubsidized Employment Form (“Is the employer a host agency?”).

22. Employer Criteria (continued)
Employers must not have been surveyed within the program year, which means sponsors survey once and continue to enter the same survey number for subsequent placements with that same employer until the next program year.
The employer is not a self-employed participant.

23. Process
We have 100 days from the date of the employers first placement in 12 month period
Let’s review the Pending Employer Survey Report in SPARQ which tells us which Employer and when

24. Now that we know which employer and when and since you have a relationship with this employer, be sure to talk to the employer at the time of placement:  
I will be staying in touch to see how the placement is going
I will call you in about X days to arrange a visit (or to touch base with you if a visit is not feasible)
Our program, the Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) is administered by Senior Service America. We and SSAI are very interested in your evaluation of our services
SSAI will be asking you to complete a short, confidential survey to tell us about your experience with our services
The survey is processed by a third party to ensure the confidentiality of your responses
We will use the summarized survey information to improve our services to our customers, including employers like you

25. SSAI has the option of hand-delivering or mailing the Employer Survey
Using the SPARQ report, your Program Officer will call you to discuss and we expect that we will be sending you the packet to hand-deliver to the Employer

26. After a survey is hand-delivered, we wait three weeks and then we coordinate with you mailing a second survey
Call and let employer know that we are sending a second copy
We do not try a 3rd time
Let’s review the info in the Satisfaction Center on the Partners’ Page
