There is a vast and sometimes confusing array of online survey tools available to small organisations which can be used to evaluate your activities or explore a specific area of interest.
In this session we will look at some of the tools available and consider which might be the most appropriate tool for you.
We’ll also look at how to build surveys in a way that will maximise response quality and rates. The best survey tool in the world is only ever as good as the questions it includes.
This session will cover
• How do you get the best out of online surveys?
• How can you encourage a good response rate?
• How can you ensure the quality of the answers?
• How can you make sure to remove biases from questions?
