As part of the Program Impact Framework, The Corporate University deploys questionnaires to participants approximately three months after completion of the educational experience. The purpose of the program impact questionnaire is to measure and analyze how participants are utilizing the knowledge, skills and tools on the job. To review a summary report of the data that has been collected from these questionnaires, please see the Program Impact Summary Report below.
