The launch of the new OAA survey system
30 January 2024
Following on from the successful introduction of our new website and membership system, the OAA is pleased to now announce the launch of a new mobile-friendly survey system which integrates with our new digital platforms for a better user experience.
The new survey system will make it easier for members to develop and submit proposals for surveys of the OAA membership, and for members to engage and participate in these surveys.
The OAA website has new Survey webpages which provide lots of useful information about the survey system and how to submit a survey proposal to the OAA Survey Subcommittee. There’s also an archive of past OAA approved surveys together with links to their reports (where available) for you to explore.
To build and submit a survey, login onto your My OAA account and click the Surveys link. Select “Conduct a survey” to build a survey powered by SurveyMonkey. To find out about the progress of your survey submission, click “My surveys”.
To submit a survey proposal to the OAA there is a one-off non-refundable administrative charge. Once a survey submission has been approved by the Survey Subcommittee for membership distribution there is a deposit fee to be paid. This deposit fee is refunded when the Survey Subcommittee receive a completed report of the survey results. Published survey reports will be hosted in the OAA Survey Archive for the benefit of all OAA members.
The OAA looks forward to receiving high-quality survey proposals that will be of interest and benefit to our membership and to our subspeciality. We hope you will find participation in membership surveys to be an easy and enjoyable experience to ensure that the surveys produce useful and valid results.
