How to Refine Survey Design

2022-01-27T11:45:05-05:00January 28th, 2022|Events, Training Opportunities|

Does your team meet any survey design projects with a collective groan? Crafting the perfect survey, or even just a pretty good one, can feel like a daunting process. But what if we could refine that process?

We’ll review key elements to consider when approaching survey design and then walk through Sharp Insight’s survey design template. The template is intended to ease the survey design process while efficiently identifying the alignment between survey items and survey objectives. It can even help kickstart your data analysis plan right from the start of your survey process.

When: Monday, February 28 at noon
Where: on Zoom. Click here to register.
