VTS periodically runs membership surveys to
take the pulse of its members. The
latest survey was conducted in the Fall of 2015. We are very thankful to the
roughly 600 members who took the time to provide this feedback. The results are
overall positive, with increases in overall member satisfaction. OAs in previous years, our members still
quote remaining technically current and being part of a premiere professional
society as their main reason for joining VTS. 77% of respondents consider that
our main publications (Transactions on Vehicular Technology and Vehicular
Technology Magazine) provide good or very good value to the job and career. We
also use these surveys as a way to guide the directions and actions of the
society. Several complaints were made about the quality of the society website,
and we are now planning an overhaul of this website during 2016. A few members
have noted that they may not hear enough from VTS; 2016 will see our increased
presence through electronic media, thanks to a strategy that is being finalized
by Board members. Other membership-related initiatives are in preparation to
improve our local and global reach; stay tuned for more throughout 2016!
