Survey shows efforts needed

Results from a community survey that asked residents to provide opinions on Yavapai College and how it can be improved were presented at the most recent Camp Verde Town Council meeting. The survey garnered more than 1,600 responses, and the college plans on improving marketing and outreach, the courses it offers, as well as maintaining a price-conscious tuition rate.

Yavapai College needs to work to improve services to people in the Verde Valley.

That’s what college officials have taken away from the results of a county-wide survey.

Yavapai College Board Member Harold Harrington and Vice President of Finance and Administration Clint Ewell presented the results of the survey to the Camp Verde Town Council at its Oct. 15 meeting.

The board initiated the survey in September 2013, Harrington said. The results of the survey were collected this summer.

“It went out to the entire county,” Harrington said.

The college sent out the survey to every household in Yavapai County, Ewell said.

The college also attempted to raise awareness of the survey through advertising in both traditional and social media.

The survey ended up producing around 1,600 responses, Ewell said.
