Exercise a - Employee Learning Preferences

As a healthcare manager, one of your responsibilities is to provide for the education and development of your employees. In order to identify the preferred education delivery methods of your employees to more effectively plan potential learning initiatives, you decide to conduct a survey to prioritize your approaches.

Locate the results of your survey in the Excel spreadsheet labeled Data for Exercise 1.2a found in the Week 1 Assignments folder. Provide a brief description of the survey, including the purpose, how it may be hypothetically implemented, and what does it measure. Identify the type of variable this data represents (categorical or quantitative) and create the appropriate graph based on the type of data represented to display this data. In looking at the graph you created, how would you prioritize the delivery methods when developing your education plan?
