Questions to consider for your professional development feedback survey

Use these questions as suggestions when editing your copy. Keep the ones that fit your purpose and add any details your process needs.

  • Which development opportunity did you take part in?
  • How relevant was it to your goals or work?
  • What would help you apply or continue the learning?

How to use the responses

Connect feedback to the person's development goals. Identify practical follow-up, such as practice, mentoring, or a suitable project, rather than assuming attendance is enough.

How to customize and share this template

  1. Name the experience you want feedback on and ask while respondents can still recall it clearly.
  2. Keep rating scales consistent and add an open question about the reason behind the answer. Remove questions that your team cannot act on.
  3. Decide how you will review results and follow up. Test the wording with someone unfamiliar with the form before sending it to the intended audience.

Frequently asked questions

How is professional development feedback different from training evaluation?
Training evaluation focuses on a particular learning session. Development feedback can also cover mentoring, projects, career support, and longer-term progress.
Can I customize this survey template?
Yes. Choose Use this template to make your own copy in Youform. Edit the questions and colors, review the whole flow, then share a link or embed it on your website. See Youform plans for advanced features.
How many questions should a feedback form have?
Use the fewest questions that answer the decision you need to make. One clear rating and a useful follow-up can suit a single interaction. A broader review may need more questions, grouped around distinct parts of the experience.
Should feedback include a name or email address?
Collect contact details when a reply is part of the purpose, and explain that use. If you want anonymous feedback, review the form's questions and settings rather than assuming that omitting a name makes every response anonymous.
