Impact surveys come with a default set of questions, but you can fully customise them to better reflect your programme goals. You can edit, add, or remove questions at any time.
🚧 Be careful
Impact survey 1 and Impact survey 2 are always linked. Any change you make to one is automatically applied to the other. This keeps your before-and-after questions consistent so your data stays comparable.

✏️ Tip
Keep your impact surveys concise. A shorter survey leads to higher completion rates. Focus on the questions that matter most to your programme goals.
