Practicum Compensation Group Meeting
November 9, 2008.

Supervisor: David Gordon-Rowe

Group Members Present:

Phebe Warren
Molly Palmer
Dawn Gyles
Colette Cummings
Kerry Taffe

Mr. Gordon-Rowe asked to see the salary survey document; Phebe presented him with completed questionnaires done by various persons in several organisations. She also showed him a copy of the salary data collection form which will be used to capture data within the five companies slated for the salary survey.

Mr. Rowe indicated that we should use the forms for the five companies, Dinthill as well as the JEF survey document as a means of referencing.

Phebe advised Mr. Rowe that the group was finalising the proposal and he would be given the revised document later in the week. He advised the group to leave the proposal as it could be submitted at a later date and focus on the data analysis of the salary survey instrument. Mr Rowe indicated that the presentation should focus on the data collected, findings, analysis and recommendation. Analysis should include standard deviation (use Excel formulas). The group should also collect from Dinthill information as to what they would like to see in their compensation package and compare with the JTA proposal.
