Please complete the survey as soon as possible. \u00a0We will be compiling an interim report to the OFA based on results as of August 31, but are holding the survey open until mid-September after which time we will prepare a comprehensive report.<\/p>\n<p>Please be assured that your individual survey responses will be maintained in complete confidence by futureInnovate, which is supporting the survey on a pro bono basis. Only aggregate data that does not disclose the identity of individual respondents will be made available to the Veterans Committee and OFA.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the response data and other research, the OFA Veterans Committee intends to make comprehensive recommendations to the OFA Board and colleague committees in early September. We also anticipate that we will seek further feedback from veterans as the year progresses, to enable us to measure progress, see what is working and what still needs improvement, and continue to benefit from the input of colleagues.<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to your responses and seeing you on the pistes in the coming season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"link\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><a name=\"section0\"><\/a><strong>Quick start \/ Table of Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>1.
