The National Fraud Authority aims to reduce fraud in the UK through cooperation between government, private industry, and non-profits. Fraud costs the public sector £21.2 billion, private sector £12 billion, and charities £1.3 billion annually. A survey found that charities underestimate their fraud risk, with 63% thinking they are not at risk, though the NFA estimates undetected fraud against charities may be 2.4% of annual income, equivalent to £1.3 billion. The NFA encourages charities to use resources like Action Fraud and the Charity Commission to implement anti-fraud policies and guidance.
Sales on online channels grew in Swiss hospitality despite economic downturn in 2009
According our survey many Swiss hotels worked with Internet distribution systems (IDS) during the economic crises trying to gain new customers and to compensate for foreseen losses. This explains the increase of market shares of such platforms. Nevertheless direct booking channels of the hotels are still dominant sales’ forces.
A rough estimation of online sales in the Swiss hotel sector based on data from our survey results in an overall turnover of probably more than 800 Million CHF in 2009 and commission costs of some 80 Million CHF. IDS have significantly increased their market share, from 5.7% in 2008 to 10.6% in 2009. This is probably due to a more active online distribution sales strategy during the economic crises.
Direct booking channels as dominant sales forces
Despite the growth of the IDS, direct booking channels such as telephone, fax, walk-ins, e-mail, Web form on the own website are still dominant for Swiss hotels. The share of these direct bookings decreased between 2008 and 2009 from 75,4 percent to 71,1 percent. On average more than half of all bookings (52,7%) are mediated through electronic channels. 26% of hotels have an own real-time booking system with a direct link to the hotel software (PMS) on their website, but Swiss hotels realize on average only 4.4% of all sales through this channel. Booking.com, Hotel Reservation System (HRS), Switzerland Travel Centre (STC) and destination management systems of local destinations are the most frequently used IDS in the Swiss hospitality sector. On average a Swiss hotels uses 5 IDS channels.
Since 2003 the University of Applied Sciences of Western Switzerland Valais (www.hevs.ch) in collaboration with the Swiss Hotel Association (www.hotelleriesuisse.ch) has conducted regularly surveys in order to monitor the evolution of sales in the different distribution channels. An online questionnaire was sent to over 2’300 members of hotelleriesuisse in January and March 2010 and resulted in 224 valid responses.

The document analyzes data to determine the characteristics of prosperous states and regions in order to set goals for Michigan's future prosperity. It finds that the most prosperous states and metro areas have high levels of educational attainment, especially a large percentage of residents with bachelor's degrees or higher. These areas also have a high proportion of employment and wages coming from "knowledge industries" that require skilled, educated workers. The document concludes Michigan should strive to emulate these top states and regions by increasing educational attainment levels and attracting more knowledge-based industries in order to raise income and prosperity.

Social media/networks/services for newcomers – focus on employment - May 3, 2012Marco Campana
You already know how important employment is in the settlement process for newcomers to Canada. But, just where are they getting their employment information, how good is it, and what are their outcomes related to information sources? What’s your role? What are you doing? Can you do it better? How can we learn from each other to work towards better employment outcomes? How can technology help (hint: your clients are better at using it than you are)?
Join Diane and Marco for an interactive session focused on things we already know and are learning about but, more importantly, what people in the room know and are doing. We’re not going to lecture (OK, maybe a bit of presentation). We’re going to facilitate a dialogue with you. You’re going to leave this session having shared some cool, innovative or impactful thing you’re doing and with new ideas and information to take back to your organization.

- Eye tracking data revealed that older adults had fewer fixations than young adults during CTA, while middle-aged adults had fewer fixations than young adults during whole screen tasks for CTA.

3. Introduction
The Downtown Resident Survey is a project of the Downtown Council of Kansas City, Missouri (DTC).
The survey is part of an ongoing commitment to track market data that both reflects and supports
economic, business and residential development throughout Downtown Kansas City.
The survey measures perceptions and use of downtown as well as demographics of Downtown
residents. Downtown is defined as the urban center of Kansas City located south of the Missouri River,
east of the Kansas/Missouri State Line, north of 31st Street and generally west of Woodland.
The survey was conducted throughout March 2010. Surveys were distributed electronically and on
paper to residential properties within the target area. A distribution list is included as Appendix A.
Participation was promoted to both property management and residents through email, websites and
via an on-line survey.
A total of 892 residents completed the survey, representing a 5% sample of the 17,000 residents
living within the survey area. Participation in the survey was self-selected and did not use scientific
sampling methodology. However, the large number of participants and sampling across all
residential properties yielded results with a 4.5% margin of error.
The Downtown Council previously conducted surveys of Downtown residents in 1998, 2002 and
2004.
About Us
