The survey will target residents of Benzie County, encouraging them to share their thoughts on the types of educational programs and vocational training they believe would be beneficial. By understanding the community's needs, organizers hope to tailor educational resources and programs that align with the desires of the adult population.
Participants will be asked a series of questions related to their current educational status, interest in pursuing further education, and the types of skills they wish to develop. The results of this survey will play a crucial role in shaping future educational initiatives and ensuring that the community has access to the necessary resources for personal and professional development.
