2008 Extension Board Conversations
Purpose: A survey was conducted with Extension Board members to…
- Gain feedback on the importance to Nebraska of outcomes identified in UNL Extensions Action Plans.
- Learn of our clienteles’ perspective of how well Extension is doing at achieving these outcomes.
- Engage extension boards in a broader understanding of UNL Extension programs.
Application: The primary application of these results is to help Action Team, Extension Boards, and Extension faculty/staff to identify priorities based, in part, on clientele perspectives of critical issues and how well Extension is currently addressing the issue. This perspective needs to be balanced against other types of information critical to identifying priorities.
