GDI Evaluation
Gabriel Dumont Institute Program Evaluation Underway
The Gabriel Dumont Institute (GDI) and Saskatchewan Advanced Education and Employment have hired EKOS Research Associates Inc. to conduct an evaluation of Institute programs – Dumont Technical Institute (DTI), the Saskatchewan Urban Native Teacher Education Program (SUNTEP) and the Publishing Department. The purpose of the study is to examine how well GDI programs are working, what its graduates are doing now, and suggestions for changes. Part of the study includes surveys and interviews with former students, GDI staff and partners. Your cooperation and participation would be greatly appreciated.
GDI has provided names of students, staff and partners to EKOS to be used only for this evaluation. A representative from the EKOS Research team may be contacting you within the next few weeks to ask you to participate in the study. The decision to participate is entirely up to you. All your responses will be kept confidential by EKOS and your name and your views will never be provided to GDI or reported individually.
If you were a student at GDI between Sept. 2004 and June 2007 and your telephone number has changed since you attended GDI, please phone EKOS Research at 1-866-755-3567 to update your information.
If you have any questions or concerns about the evaluation, please do not hesitate to contact GDI Program Coordinator Lisa Wilson by telephone at 306-657-2249 or by email at:
Thank you,
The GDI Evaluation Team
