Survey Administration Guide

SPR Center has prepared a Survey Administration Guide for organizations that have chosen to conduct an employee survey and wish to prepare a project logistics document. The user of this guide will most likely be the project coordinator or someone playing a similar role.

In most organizations a survey committee is created to oversee the survey process. At the outset, it is important for this committee, or if there is no committee then the survey coordinator, to outline all of the steps required to conduct the survey and the person or group responsible for each step. SPR Center's guide will provide you with a series of steps and considerations when surveying. However, based on your organization's needs and structure, you may find that refinement to the tasks described in the guide will be needed. That is to be expected, as this guide is just that, a series of guidelines.
