Why this field matters here

Only six modules: alongside languages, the least covered field, and we would rather say so than inflate it. It currently serves as methodological support to other paths rather than a standalone specialisation.

Target roles

What these people actually do once in role, described through daily acts rather than the title printed on the payslip.

Research officer

They build a questionnaire, collect and report. Quality rests entirely on how questions are worded.

Programme officer, non-profit

They design, monitor and evaluate a field programme. The evaluation report conditions the next round of funding.

Where to start

Order matters as much as volume: taken at the right moment, a module pays off the very next week, in the role you already hold.

  1. 01

    1 — Framing a research question

    What exactly you are looking for, and what you are not.

  2. 02

    2 — Collecting without bias

    Sample, wording, survey conditions.

  3. 03

    3 — Reporting honestly

    Telling what the data shows from what you wish it showed.

Questions about this field

Six modules — is that enough?

For a specialisation, no, and we do not claim otherwise. For acquiring a survey method usable in another trade — market study, programme evaluation, internal diagnosis — yes. That is this field's real use today.

Who is this field really for?

For those who must produce reliable information about people: a research officer in a non-governmental organisation, an agent in a statistics department, a project monitoring and evaluation lead. It is not a general-culture field: the modules cover questionnaire design, sampling and interpretation, and assume you have a survey to run.
