How to send post event survey completion certificates

Conducting surveys is an effective way of collecting valuable data about your events. Not only does it help you figure out the success of events, but the data helps you plan for future event organization as well.

Eventleaf is the best event management system for creating post-event survey questions and collecting attendees' feedback. Additionally, it's often important to acknowledge the attendee's participation by issuing a survey completion certificate. You can create webinar survey questions, virtual event survey questions, and questionnaires for any event type.

This tutorial will demonstrate how to send survey completion certificates that can be used as proof of attendance. You can create multiple surveys for each event and session.

Steps

  1. Go to "Communications > Surveys" and click on the survey you plan to send at the end of the event. If you haven't created a survey yet, click the "+ Create Survey" button.
