This version is designed for a nonclinical learning program with one named skill. It collects perceptions, not an objective skill test or proof of effectiveness. ## When to use this pre- and post-intervention survey Academic and program-evaluation teams can use this starting questionnaire for a nonclinical learning intervention. Any research use still needs the study’s own consent, data handling, and review arrangements. If you only need feedback on the completed session, use our [workshop feedback](https://www.surveylegend.com/survey-examples-templates/post-workshop-survey-template/) template. **Create your pre- and post-intervention survey in SurveyLegend** A before-and-after comparison needs the same subject, wording, and response options at both points.

Keep the core wording identical. If you need paired analysis, arrange an appropriate participant-code process without using names here. Review the instrument against your study question before collection; it is not validated. Before sharing widely, try the questions with a few people from the intended audience and clarify anything they interpret differently. ## Printable pre- and post-intervention survey template Use this printable pre- and post-intervention survey template at the beginning and end of a learning program. It includes the same questions and space to write, giving people who prefer paper or are less comfortable online another way to take part. SurveyLegend helps you offer both formats. Tell respondents where to return the completed form and who will review it. Paper answers need a separate review or manual entry process; they are not automatically added to online responses.

Compare the same items, and report how many participants supplied both responses. Changes in confidence are not objective learning gains, and a simple before-and-after design does not establish causation. Do not interpret unmatched respondents as individual change. ## Frequently asked questions ### Does this prove an intervention worked? No. It records self-reported change. Causal conclusions need an appropriate research design and analysis beyond this template. ### Must participants use a code? Only if your study requires matching and has an appropriate process. Without matching, compare groups rather than claiming individual change. ### Is this a validated assessment? No. It is an original starting questionnaire for nonclinical learning. Review its suitability and research requirements before use. Academic Survey and Questionnaire Templates 1.
