Welcome to the Forum Survey
Thank you for choosing to use this Forum Survey to help maintain and improve the health of your Forum.

Within a few minutes, you will set up the Forum Survey and
    • Your Forum members will automatically receive an email providing them with instructions on how to access and complete the survey.
    • You will receive an email from your own email address with the subject of 'Forum Survey Results'. It is important that you save this email as it provides instructions on how to:
      • view the survey results
      • add new participants at a later time
      • extend the expiration date of the survey
      • take the survey yourself
Please take a few minutes to read and understand the following instructions:
