2021 Survey Results

While the survey focused on our communications tools, results captured comments about communications related to the exam and other specific issues. Areas of opportunity included:

• Clearer communication about deadlines, guidelines, and exam expectations.
• More materials for languages other than English.
• More clarity on how exam scores are calculated.
• The ability to see which questions were incorrect and other feedback.

In the coming weeks those sitting Part II will see enhancements to the feedback received in the exam report and we will be adding this to the Part III report in due course.

Covid-19 has bought many challenges, including moving all of our events and meet-ups to an online space. With the easing of restrictions in many countries, 66% of participants would like to see these events continue to be accessible online. We are constantly trying to find new ways to make these events engaging, informative, and accessible.

Overall, the survey received 345 suggestions and recommendations. We have reviewed each of the suggestions to enhance our communications and our value to you.

APSCA’s mission is to increase the value and effectiveness of independent social compliance audits by enhancing the professionalism and credibility of individuals and organizations performing them. Communicating to you and others is an important step in the journey to accomplish our Mission.
