Boost training effectiveness with a training survey
A training survey template consists of questions that delve into the success of a given training session. Use the survey to identify elements of a course that should be improved. It is something you can implement in the middle of a training session to pick up signals from customers on what to improve going forward. It is also a valuable tool for when you want to gather feedback on how satisfied your participants and customers are with a completed course.

How does a training survey work?
A training survey functions as a tool you use to gather feedback from participants and customers on how they have experienced training sessions. It covers everything from course material to course instructor performance. A training survey functions well as an add-on to the general course evaluation. To streamline the process of executing on a training survey, you can use a training survey template that consists of questions from six different facets of training. This will give you a deeper understanding of what is working and what should be improved.
What is the difference between a training survey and training feedback?
Depending on whether you are a course provider or a L&D operator who manages internal upskilling, you can use the two templates for different reasons:
- The training survey functions as an in-depth exploration of the success of the training session, including onboarding into new tasks and upskilling in existing tasks on a higher knowledge level.
- The training feedback is focused on the success of the specific training session, for instance a course in marketing 101.
Examples of training feedback questions
Relevance of content
- Were the objectives for the training sessions defined and articulated clearly?
- Was the course material presented in an intuitive way?
Trainer effectiveness
- Did the instructor engage and interact with the participants effectively?
- How well did the trainer answer your questions?
Learning environment
- Was the temperature, lighting and physical parameters conducive to learning?
- If online, did you experience the platform as technically adequate?
Participant engagement
- Were the activities and exercises relevant to the matter at hand?
- How well did the instructor facilitate interactions with the other participants?
Skill application and retention
- Will the training session improve your day-to-day performance and task execution?
- Did you get recommendations for continued learning or access to follow-up resources?
Overall satisfaction

- What is one thing you think the course is missing?
