Hello:

My name is Dave Henderson and I am a doctoral student at Virginia Tech majoring in Information Systems. I am conducting a web-based survey for my dissertation to investigate attitudes of Information Technology professionals toward using the Rational Unified Process. My dissertation further investigates what makes the Rational Unified Process useful to Information Technology professionals.

I am currently looking for Information Technology professionals who have used the Rational Unified Process to participate in my survey. As a member of a Visual Basic Users Group, your input would be extremely valuable to my research. In return for your participation, I will provide a summary of the results of my research. Furthermore, participants will be able to enter into a random prize drawing to win $250.00. The survey is completely anonymous and takes 20 minutes to complete.

If you are interested in taking the survey, please email me at davidlhenderson@vt.edu and I will email you the hyperlink to the survey. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much for your time.

Best Regards,

Dave
