Planning to conduct a survey as part of your research? Or just want to get better at knowing what makes a survey work well?
Join SSRI on September 25 for Introduction to Survey Design, a practical workshop covering the basics of designing effective surveys, from writing good questions to understanding where things can go wrong.

We’ll cover:
- When a survey is the right tool for a research question
