Collect Data Online with Qualtrics

Qualtrics-lowQualtrics, an advanced online survey application, is available to students, faculty and staff.  Qualtrics is ideal for research surveys conducted by academic researchers, but it’s also useful for staff and administrators who wish to collect information for use in campus business. Easily create and deploy an interactive web-based form, instead of wasting time and effort printing, distributing, collecting and processing data from paper forms.

Qualtrics is available within MyCanisius, in the left hand launch pad menu, under “My Applications.” Mark Gallimore conducts workshops to help users get started. The next workshop is on Friday February 26. For details, go to canisius.edu/surveys.  To sign up for the next Qualtrics workshop (and see an example of an easy-to-build Qualtrics form) click here.
