Social Services Workforce – Making it Easier to Access Knowledge Online

Making it Easier to Access Knowledge Online

 The Office of the Chief Social Work Adviser at Scottish Government is seeking contributions from the social services workforce to a survey on how they access information and knowledge online.

The survey is available at

www.response.questback.com/isa/qbv.dll/ShowQuest?QuestID=4883318&sid=jLJJQrFpJY

The plan is to understand:

  • where the workforce is going for information; what websites they currently use
  • what they find helpful online
  • what the enablers and barriers are to accessing material online
  • what content and features would help going forward, to make it as easy as possible for people to access relevant knowledge for their work

All contributions are encouraged, valued and much appreciated. The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Please note that the survey closes on 2 December 2016.

If you have any questions about this survey, please contact [email protected]
