CONFIDENTIAL QUESTIONNAIRE

4

My name is Leslie Pirtle. I am the assistant to John Bove, Dean of

the Health Care Management Degree Program at Cambridge College. I am

also a Health Care Management student. For my ILP, I am assembling a

report on what graduates of our program are doing and how their

Cambridge College Degree has helped them to achieve their goals. From

this, I will create a booklet intended help potential students to decide if the

Master of Management in Health Care is the right degree for them to

pursue.

I hope you will take a few minutes to complete this online

questionnaire. Unless otherwise indicated, “your degree” in this survey is

intended to mean “your Cambridge College Master of Management in

Health Care.” I assure you that I will hold all of the information you give

me 100% confidential.

Best Regards,

Leslie Pirtle,

Assistant to the Dean and Director

Health Care Management Graduate Program
