Resource Information

The survey should address the following questions (Suskie, 1996):

• How will the results be used?
• What are the objectives of your survey?
• What are the critical questions to be answered?
• What information do you need to answer the questions?
• Is a survey the appropriate data collection method?
• Do you really need a survey?
• How will you analyze and report the data?
