Survey Expertise Needed
If you have working knowledge of surveys (a bit more sophisticated than Survey Monkey), or could connect us with someone who has this knowledge, we would be grateful for some help. We are trying to identify a platform that will enable us to send the right kind of survey out for our strategic plan process. Please contact Sister Dominic if you can help. Thank you!
