EDUCATIONAL SERVICE AGENCIES (ESA)
ORGANIZATIONAL BENCHMARKING PROJECT

2014 Survey

The Association of Educational Service Agencies (AESA) has established the ESA metrics project and benchmarking survey of Educational Service Agencies (ESAs) as a value-added service to its member organizations.

This is a voluntary ESA initiative--a partnership among AESA, the AESA Foundation, several state ESA associations and an AESA business partner. Your participation is key to the success of this effort. 

The information collected through this effort will be utilized by participant organizations and state networks of ESAs to enable organizational benchmarking and to share best practices.  The survey is organized around 5 broad categories: 1) Internal Processes & Purpose and Direction, 2) Clients & Stakeholders, 3) Service Impact, 4) Financial, 5) Learning and Growth.  The survey will be completed online.

Information provided should be for the most recently completed school year available.  Please complete the following survey online no later than December 15th, 2014.  If you have any questions, please contact Michael L. Fuller through the contact information below:

You must register and create a UserID and password, and login in to complete the survey (prior years UserIDs are still valid). You can login and update or complete the survey any time after you have created a login ID. Submitted survey data can be edited with the Save or Submit buttons as long as you use the same UserID and password when you login to the survey, so it does not have to be completed all at once. Please register your ESA only once. Please use numbers only for all questions that ask for a numeric response. Be aware that there are dropdown boxes (with a down arrow), for selections that are limited to one response. Be sure to hit the "Save" or "Submit" buttons on the survey page, or you responses will not be recorded. Errors will appear in red at the top of the page (i.e., text used in a box where numbers only are required) - successful saves will also be noted at the top of the page.
