Create a program satisfaction survey for adults completing our six-week community skills program.

Ask what they can apply, which session was useful, what should change, and whether they would recommend the program. Keep names optional.

FAQ

Program satisfaction survey questions

Practical answers for coordinators designing a useful participant feedback cycle.

What is a program satisfaction survey?

It asks participants about program content, delivery, access, support, and overall value. Responses show what to retain, investigate, or change.

What questions should a program satisfaction survey include?

Include context, separate content and delivery ratings, overall satisfaction, access, usefulness, and open prompts about what to keep and change.

Which rating scale works best?

Use a labeled five-point scale with consistent endpoints. Add not applicable when someone may not have used a service.

When should I send the survey?

Send it after a key activity, at completion, or at a planned midpoint. Use a later follow-up for longer-term outcomes.

Can responses be anonymous?

Yes. Omit identity fields. For follow-up volunteers, ask permission and collect an optional email separately.

How long should the survey be?

Keep every question tied to a decision. Use a few rating grids, two or three open questions, and logic that hides unused services.

How do I analyze program satisfaction responses?

Compare content, facilitator, access, and schedule ratings by cohort or format, then read comments for explanations and recurring requests.

Is the program satisfaction survey generator free?

Yes. Makeform is unlimited free for generating, editing, publishing, and collecting responses. The paid tier only removes the Makeform badge.
