Introduction

Thank you for serving as a supervisor for the Laboratory Leadership Service (LLS) 2024 Fellowship Class! The purpose of this survey is to identify ways to improve the supervisor and host site experience.

Your participation is voluntary but highly encouraged. Individual responses will be accessible only to CDC’s Epidemiology and Laboratory Workforce Branch (including LLS program) and DWD evaluation staff. Results from the survey will be reported in aggregate (e.g., 75% of host site supervisors were satisfied with the program).

We estimate that it will take approximately 7 minutes to complete this survey. This survey link is unique to you, so please don’t forward it to others.

Please contact [email protected] if you have any questions regarding this survey.

The public reporting burden of this collection of information is estimated to average 7 minutes per response, including 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 H21-8, Atlanta, Georgia 30333 ATT: PRA (0920-1163)
