Survey Design

At times, a research or policy question cannot be answered with existing data. CREC staff are trained in survey design and validation methodologies and can create a custom survey for all respondent types, including students, parents, and teachers. CREC staff can also determine if an existing survey has the technical qualities needed for the stated purpose. CREC will administer the survey, collect and analyze the results, and prepare a final report.
