Attachment D: Community of Practice Member Assessment Notification Email

Dear NSSP Community of Practice Member:

The Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE), through a cooperative agreement with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), cultivates, facilitates, and maintains the online National Syndromic Surveillance Program (NSSP) Community of Practice. CSTE is seeking input on how well the NSSP Community of Practice is meeting the needs of its members. As a valuable member of the community, CSTE invites you to participate in this member satisfaction and needs assessment.

The information collected in this assessment may be used for several purposes, such as discovering opportunities to improve the member experience, learning about members’ technical and training needs, and developing new tools and resources to improve syndromic surveillance practice. The CDC may also use this information to inform resource needs for future community of practice activities.

Completing the assessment is voluntary and takes approximately 15 minutes. Please complete the assessment in a single session as you will not be able to save it and return to it later.

Results of the assessment will be aggregated and shared with CDC and the NSSP Community of Practice membership via a final report, webinar, and/or publication. CDC and CSTE will not publish or share any identifying information about individual respondents or health departments/agencies.

The deadline for completing the assessment is [enter dates for 2 weeks].

Please do not forward the link to other colleagues.

If you have questions regarding the assessment or the NSSP Community of Practice, please contact Hayleigh McCall at [email protected] or (770) 458-3811.

Thank you for your participation.
