Large Survey Process Step 1

Knowing who will manage the administration of the survey is important for us in overseeing the process. If someone new is assigned to manage it, ensure a smooth handoff by keeping us up to date.

The chosen name of the survey should be unique, especially for those surveys conducted more than once (e.g., annually).

Step 1b. When will you conduct your survey?

You may have heard us say this before: Wake conducts lots of large surveys!

Why do we ask these questions on the Large Survey Request Form?

Typically, only one large survey can be administered at a time. The Large Survey Schedule shows what surveys have already been approved to go into the field. Your request probably won’t be approved if it overlaps with an existing request.

Tips for best practice

Most surveys are open for two weeks. Surveys are sometimes open for longer, but most participants respond within the first week or two unless you engage in extra marketing efforts.
