Our regular events: How to manage Employee and Customer Satisfaction Surveys
Our main business is providing consultancy and bureau services to
help clients conduct survey research but we recognise that some people
prefer to be more independent, and that these people want to acquire
some expertise of their own, rather than forever depend on ours. To
meet this need, we have developed some one day training seminars.
We offer the seminars either as public (open) courses or as in house events delivered
on your premises. Each seminar stands alone if required, but taken
together, they amount to a beginner's course in survey research. If
the seminars do not meet your specific needs, we are pleased to adapt
the content for an in-house seminar to meet your requirements.

| Fee: £250 + VAT |
An introduction for anyone responsible for conducting research by postal or web based self completion survey.
The day will equip delegates with the basic skills
required to develop and design attractive and effective survey
questionnaires.
The day includes practical exercises throughout, and
ends with a session during which delegates work on a project of their
own. Delegates are encouraged to bring an example of a questionnaire to
work on. It may be a draft for a planned survey, or a questionnaire
which has been used in an area of interest to the delegate, and which
they can adapt and improve in light of their learning during the day. We
provide a draft questionnaire for anyone who hasn’t an example of their
own.
Delegates need a good command of English, but no other knowledge or experience is required.

| Getting
facts out of figures; A beginner's practical guide to statistics |

Dates:

| Fee: £250 + VAT |
An introduction
for anyone responsible for gathering, summarising, analysing, presenting
or interpreting data (especially from surveys).
Following the day,
delegates will be able to summarise data and detect differences between
groups of informants or for the same group at different times. They will
be able to assess and report the statistical significance (if any) of
these differences. When looking at figures prepared by others, delegates
will understand the distinction between a statistically significant
difference and one which may be attributable to sampling error. The
seminar assumes survey data as the raw material for analysis, but the
principles are applicable to data drawn from other sources, including
BVPIs, SAT results, etc
The day is illustrated throughout with on-screen worked
examples, followed by practical exercises. Delegates receive a CD-ROM to
take away and use, including an Excel workbook comprising all the
worked examples and a set of easy-to-use practical tools for calculating
confidence intervals, assessing required sample sizes, standard
deviations, standard errors and standard errors and significance of
differences.
It is an introduction to
simple statistics, so although delegates should be comfortable with
arithmetic, including decimals and percentages, no previous knowledge
beyond this is required. |

This day is for anyone who
wants to produce clear, succinct, accessible writing. It will provide a
checklist of desirable and undesirable features and equip delegates with
the skills to recognise them and make improvements where required.
The day includes practical
exercises throughout, and ends with a session during which delegates
can work on a text of their own. Delegates are encouraged to bring some
of their own writing to work on. We provide texts for anyone who hasn’t
an example of their own. Delegates need a reasonable command of English,
but no other knowledge or experience is required. |
