Planning for Q3 Benchmarks
Planning for Q3 Benchmarks
Please review the Q2 benchmarks from last year (with a few exceptions) for consideration for the Q3 2021 Benchmarks. If we need to do so, we will create benchmarks from scratch that meet our needs. The benchmark week will be here before we know it, so be prepared to make a decision at the next department meeting on March 17th.
