From the June 2010 issue of Ceridian Connection.

Connection subscribers are invited to participate in CedarCrestone's 2010-2011 HR Systems Survey: HR Technologies, Service Delivery Choices, and Metrics Survey, 13th Annual Edition through July 5, 2010. The survey is a comprehensive research effort designed to provide organizations with important data to plan, justify, benchmark, and execute HR technologies. The survey questionnaire is available online at www.CedarCrestone.com/hrssv10.

The 2010-2011 HR Survey covers questions about:

• Application adoption


• HR software acquisition and deployment trends


• "Going global" trends


• The value of HR technologies

"For six years in a row," says HR Technology® Conference co-chair Bill Kutik, "we have asked CedarCrestone to debut its survey at our event because it is the most thorough, highly respected and useful survey on technology usage in HR. Clearly, HR and IT practitioners know that, too, because it draws standing room only attendance every year."

The survey collects responses from HR and IT management with knowledge of the HR technologies in use and planned. Organizations in all industries with over 500 employees are invited to participate. All responses are anonymous and will be kept confidential. Your information will only be used in the aggregate. The survey questionnaire is available online at www.CedarCrestone.com/hrssv10.

Here's your chance to contribute to the most comprehensive collection of data focused on HR technologies usage and overall HR service delivery.

The first 100 respondents completing the survey will receive a $5 Starbucks card. All respondents will receive an advance copy of the results in late September 2010 and will be invited to a special webinar of results thereafter.

CedarCrestone offers a special discount for survey participants that complete all sections: $500 off the regular registration price for the 2010 HR Technology® Conference of $1,695 which can be used by any employees of the company completing the survey. When you return your completed survey, we will send you a discount code to apply to the Conference fee. We will also enter each company completing a survey in a drawing to win a free benchmark project from CedarCrestone worth $10,000.*
