Form 0920-0974 Microbiology-Oriented eLearning Feedback

2018 Microbiology-Oriented eLearning Courses Learner Feedback Survey

Thank you for taking this voluntary survey to help us understand how well the microbiologyoriented eLearning courses produced by the Division of Laboratory Systems, Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention have been serving the needs of our learners. The feedback you provide will
also inform updates to these courses and future course development.
The survey questions will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. Your responses will be
anonymous and no unique identifying information will be sought or kept. The feedback we receive
will be used by our programs in aggregate only.
INSTRUCTIONS
The courses are grouped into three sections for this survey: Biothreat Preparedness for Sentinel
Laboratories, Basic Microbiology, and Methods of Antimrobial Susceptibility Testing Educational
Resource (M.A.S.T.E.R.) Survey formatting will direct you to the appropriate section(s). For
example, if you indicate you did not complete any of the Biothreat Preparedness courses, you will
skip directly to Basic Microbiology courses section. Please respond to each question by clicking
on the button beside the option(s) that best reflect(s) your opinion. An asterick (*) at the beginning
of a question indicates that a response is required. At the conclusion of the survey you will click
DONE to exit the survey.
Please select "next" to begin the survey.

Public reporting burden of this collection of information is estimated to average 5 minutes per response, including the time
for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and
reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a
collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Send comments regarding this burden
estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden to CDC/ATSDR
Reports Clearance Officer; 1600 Clifton Road NE, MS D-74, Atlanta, Georgia 30333; ATTN: PRA (0920-0974).
