Form 1 ORO Webinar or Meeting Feedback Survey

Office of Regional Operations

Webinar/Meeting Event Feedback Survey

For each webinar or meeting event hosted by ORO, a survey will be created in on-line survey software or paper format to gather feedback that can inform project planning. Given the changing nature and context of each webinar and meeting, it is important to be able to get feedback from recipients without creating undue burden by answering excessive questions that only marginally apply. To address this, the survey will be tailored to the unique information needs of each event to ensure low burden while informing high quality service provision. When creating each survey, the Central Office and Regional Offices will use the 6 required questions listed below and choose up to 19 context specific optional questions that can be added to the survey, as needed. This will allow for unique information needs to be met.

It is expected that the brief 5-minute survey would include the 6 required questions. Each tailored survey will have no more than 25 questions, including 6 required questions and a maximum of 10-19 optional questions, with a burden of no more than 15 minutes.
