## How to use it

1. Pick fewer than fifteen questions for the form you send; the full list is a menu.
2. Open the form on the last day, while people are still on site, and again by message the next morning.
3. Review open comments by theme and put the top three changes into the next event’s plan.
4. Report response rate along with the scores, so readers can judge the numbers.

## Where it has been used

Informed by feedback forms attached to sessions at conferences and member meets, where results fed the post-event report.

## Questions people ask

How long should a feedback form be?

Under three minutes, which means about ten questions. Use the longer menu for a one-off review and the shorter list for per-session forms where response rate falls quickly with length.

Should responses be anonymous?

Usually yes, with an optional name field for those who want a reply. Anonymous forms give blunter feedback, but make clear whether responses can be linked to the attendee in any way.

What response rate is good?

Rates vary a lot by audience and timing. Compare each event with your own earlier rates, and take more care with comments than with a score that only a few people provided.
