Overview: How to design and implement web surveys

Many surveys on the web are very poorly designed: they often ask too many questions, or irrelevant questions, or biased questions. These problems make the resulting data impossible to analyse. This course will help you avoid the potential traps in survey and questionnaire design and teach you how to write valid and reliable survey questions.

“With its good balance of theory and practice, this course has given me the confidence to build a survey from scratch.”
– Arnaud Pellé, Emerald Publishing Group.

What delegates say about this seminar

• "I now plan to spend more time analysing whether a survey is relevant and working out how to formulate the right questions."
• "The approach to pilot testing a survey with an audience was a real eye-opener! Previously I've only shared it with like-minded colleagues so we perhaps didn't get the best response."
• "I now know how to review my survey before sending it out, to check the right questions are being asked."
• "There were useful tips about analysis (especially the cross-tabulations) and creating good email invitations."
• "I was on the course for a very specific reason: to create the staff perception survey. I now have the confidence to go ahead and do it."
