Education Survey Research
Decision Analyst has helped educational entities benefit from secondary research, survey research, and analytical consulting.
Survey research and analytics have been widely used in the corporate world for almost 100 years. Companies have used survey research and analytics to improve products, services, communications, websites, customer satisfaction, and employee satisfaction.
School districts and educational institutions (from grade schools through university graduate schools) can likewise benefit from the insight and power of survey research and analytics. An increasing number of schools and universities are employing survey research and analytics to guide fund raising, improve student recruiting, upgrade advertising and communications, and optimize marketing activities.
Research-based decisions are one of the keys to the long-term success of educational entities. Decision Analyst can help by bringing proven research and analytic concepts from the corporate world to benefit educational institutions (and by protecting educational entities from all the bad research that failed in the corporate world).
