SLD 10/21 - CEPU Member survey and CEPU EBA Conference
MEMBER SURVEY – CEPU EBA IN TELSTRA
As members return from holidays and the CEPU is preparing for the next period in its EBA campaign in Telstra, we are about to conduct a survey of members regarding various aspects of the EBA campaign.
The survey will be conducted by Auspoll, on-line and it will begin on Monday 1st February 2010. You will have 5 days to respond. The survey access will be sent to you via email. Please follow the instructions carefully as you only get one chance. If you don’t receive the email, please remember to check your trash/delete folders.
Please take the time (it is a short survey) to fill it in and return it as this will be a great assistance in our planning for the period ahead.
Obviously, the survey will not replace our regular member meetings, telephone conferences and other membership contact.
We will organise another series of member meetings and telephone conferences shortly.
CONFERENCE TOMORROW – EBA – ITS NOT TOO LATE
It is still not to lake to book into the members’ conference on the EBA set for tomorrow Saturday 30th January 2010 from 9.30 to 4pm, if you can attend in person.
Unfortunately phone in participation has reached the cut off point.
Contact the branch office for details or send us an email pwilloughby@victs.cepu.asn.au .
