ACCT Membership Survey 2010


The Association for Challenge Course Technology Survey

Help Us To Serve You Better!

 

The Association for Challenge Course Technology, founded in 1993, is a non-profit, tax-exempt trade association serving the Challenge Course and related industries. ACCT creates and publishes standards, holds educational events, and publishes other materials which update and educate these industries. ACCT also advocates for these industries with government entities and the press.

 

We are taking the initiative to seek feedback from those we serve in order to make informed decisions regarding our membership and services.  Your answers and insight will therefore help shape the future of ACCT!

 

This survey is open to members and non-members.  If you are aware of someone who would like to offer their insight who is a non-member, you can refer them to the electronic survey found on our website at www.acctinfo.org.

 

Completed surveys must be submitted by March 1, 2010.  If you have any questions regarding this survey please feel free to contact Sonny Oztas at (847) 325-5860 or info@acctinfo.org.

 

Thank you for your time and for your investment into the Association for Challenge Course Technology!
