SAN Survey- If you are the state authorization professional for your college, please complete the survey linked below. If not, please forward it to the right person. The State Authorization Network is conducting this survey to analyze and report on occupational data from state authorization professionals across the country. The survey addresses topics from the participant's salary to institutional and positional information. This anonymous data will then be analyzed to find commonalities of the responsibility/position across the United States.
