GDS Enhancement Project - Redesign of the National Survey Form

As part of the Graduate Destination Survey Enhancement Project, GCA has introduced a new GDS survey form.

The standard GCA paper questionnaire used by most institutions to collect their survey data has been redesigned to consolidate and advance many ideas put forward over the years, and to enhance the efficiency and value of the instrument. The redesign has involved psychometric and operational reviews, and an iterative and consultative series of development activities. A validated, calibrated, aesthetically appealing and efficient form has been produced and released. The form will be used for the  first time during the October 2005 survey round.
