Surveys collect structured feedback from learners. This page covers the survey types available to you, which one fits which situation, and how each type reaches its respondents.
***
## Survey types
You choose the type when you create the survey. The type determines what the survey can be attached to and how it can be assigned.
| Type | What it collects | Attached to | Reuse | How it's assigned |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| **General Survey** | Feedback on any topic, with no attachment to a specific training or person | Nothing — stands on its own | Filled once per learner | Manually, or by an automation |
| **Training Feedback** | Feedback and expectations about a specific piece of learning | A course, Journey, event, or session | Reusable across different trainings | Automation only |
| **Employee Feedback** | Feedback about a specific person during a process such as onboarding or a manager review | An employee | Reusable across different employees | Automation only |
Training Feedback and Employee Feedback are **context-based** surveys: each response is tied to the training or employee it was collected about, which is what makes one survey reusable across many trainings or many people.

## When to use which
**General Survey** — reach for this first. Use it when the questions stand on their own and you know who should answer:
* Onboarding check-ins ("how was your first week?")
* Company-wide engagement or pulse surveys
* Feedback on an announcement or policy change
* Ad-hoc research, standalone assessments
**Training Feedback** — use it when the same questions should follow many different trainings:
* Post-course reaction surveys sent after completion
* Pre-training expectation surveys
* Instructor or workshop evaluation across a whole catalog
Build one Training Feedback survey and attach it to every training that needs it, rather than duplicating a General Survey per course. Results stay separated by training.
**Employee Feedback** — use it when the same questions should be asked repeatedly about different people:
* Manager reviewing a direct report at the end of onboarding
* Mentor or buddy feedback during a ramp-up period
* Peer feedback gathered during a structured process

## How to assign each type
### General Survey — manual assignment
Go to **Surveys** and select the survey you want to send.
Select **Assign**, then choose the learners who should respond.
Filter by attributes such as department, position, or location to target a segment instead of the whole organization.
Confirm the assignment. Assigned learners are notified and the survey appears in their **Surveys** list.
### All three types — automation
Context-based surveys reach learners only through an automation, and General Surveys can use one too. Add an automation with the **Assign To Survey** action to the training the survey should follow, and set the trigger that should send it — for example, completion of a course.
Because the automation supplies the context, the same Training Feedback survey attached to twenty courses produces twenty separately reportable sets of responses.
See [Automations](/admin/automations) for triggers, delays, and the full list of actions.
Training Feedback and Employee Feedback surveys have no manual assignment path. If one is not reaching anyone, check that an automation exists and is active.

## Question types
| Type | What it is |
| ------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| **Multiple choice** | Select one or more options from a list |
| **True / False** | Binary answer |
| **Rating** | Numeric scale (e.g. 1–5) |
| **Open text** | Free-form written response |
***
## Anonymous surveys
Any survey can be marked **anonymous** in its settings. Individual responses are then not attributed to a respondent in the results, and learners see that the survey is anonymous before they start.
Set this before the survey goes out — switching it afterwards changes how existing responses are presented.
***
## Reading results
Survey analytics show responses per question, with completion rates for the assigned audience.
For context-based surveys, filter results by the context the responses came from — a specific course, Journey, or event for Training Feedback, and a specific employee for Employee Feedback. That filter is how you compare one training against another using a single survey.
