SPSS Inc., a leading worldwide provider of predictive analytics software, today announced that the Peace Corps is deploying SPSS predictive analytics software to survey volunteer satisfaction.
These studies investigate the safety and security of volunteers; evaluate training preparedness, and overall satisfaction of those that serve.
Since 1961, the Peace Corps has shared with the world America's most precious resource-its people. Peace Corps volunteers serve in 73 countries in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Central and South America, Europe, and the Middle East. Collaborating with local community members, volunteers work in areas like education, youth outreach, health, environment, agriculture and business development.
To better prepare and ensure the safety of volunteers, the organization surveys their volunteers at two points of their service-once during, and once when they complete service. The results from the surveys are analyzed and utilized throughout the agency in a multitude of ways, with the ultimate goal of improving the volunteer experience. Additionally, the Peace Corps uses SPSS to study volunteer and applicant demographics that are used internally, in reports to Congress, and in strategic plans.
"Peace Corps volunteers have an innate desire to help others, and SPSS is quite proud that our software is being used to protect and prepare these volunteers for such a worthy endeavor," said SPSS President and CEO Jack Noonan.
