How do I provide feedback about a class?
Your feedback is very important to us, and we want to know about your class experience with the Training Partnership. You can complete a course review after attending a class by taking a course survey.
Course Survey
All Home Care Aides are encouraged to complete a course survey online.
The Training Partnership Customer Service Team would like your feedback to provide the best possible training for our students. These surveys are short, and feedback is taken seriously.
The surveys will help us do the following:
- Help improve our classes
- Make sure your opinions are heard
- Help us better meet your needs as a student
To submit a course survey, after you complete a course, you will see a “Take Survey” link on your student home page. Simply follow that link to review the course.
In-person Feedback and Focus Groups
In addition to surveys, the Training Partnership collects input from students through in-person feedback and focus groups. These opportunities allow students to share their ideas and feedback to improve classes. If you are interested in participating, email feedback@myseiubenefits.org and provide your full name and date of birth in the email. We will contact you in the future for feedback opportunities.
