form asks whether the event provided practical information which
allowed them to manage their businesses more effectively and
efficiently and gave them a good working knowledge of the subject. It
asks whether the program was sufficient. It asks whether each speaker
was well-organized, interesting, presented information at the
appropriate level, and communicated well. It asks for suggestion for
improvement, and for ideas for new topics.
The form asks some demographic information so that SBA can better
understand the Community which these events serve. Where the event
relates to government contracting, it asks whether the respondent has
taken advantage of various government contracting programs which SBA
offers. SBA may also use this form to help evaluate programs which it
conducts by itself. Responding to the questionnaire is entirely
voluntary.
