Here's a quick summary of our data collection methodology:
COLLECT: ChurchSalary collects data from our own National Church Compensation Survey as well as from organizations such as the Barna Group and YP Comp Pros.
VALIDATE: Salary profiles are funneled through several layers of filters to prevent invalid data from getting into our active database. Our partnership with Clarity Research allows us to ensure statistical validity of delivered results.
ANALYZE: Data is filtered and analyzed primarily based on position, employment status, church budget, and church size. In addition, criteria such as experience, education, and geographical settings are used to filter and analyze salary data in every report.
DELIVER: Insights specific to customer’s needs are presented in custom reports which can be either viewed online or downloaded. Members are able to save, label, and organize multiple reports.
