We are always interested in feedback from the graduates of our program. MOCM has collected data for the past five years that enables us to continuously improve our program and keep in touch with graduates. We send a questionnaire to graduates 1 and 5 years “out” at the end of each academic year. Last Spring we sent out 33 surveys and received 20 completed surveys back for an outstanding mailed return rate of 61%. Below you will find a copy of the survey with the most recent results.
