DJS Research Ltd is pleased to announce the launch of VoicED.org.uk, a market research community for education professionals. The panel allows people working in all areas of the education sector to voice their opinions and influence the future of the sector without any exposure to sales or marketing – the community is wholly for market research purposes.
VoicED operates on a dual incentive system, with respondents receiving
incentives for both themselves and their choice of either an educational
institution or the panel’s nominated charity, The Prince’s Teaching Institute.
The panel, in development for several months, has generated a lot of interest among education professionals and it is anticipated that several hundred individuals will sign up soon after launching. All new sign-ups will be entered in to monthly prize draws for both themselves and their school, as well as receiving the normal variable incentives for responding to research. VoicED offers respondents the opportunity to be involved in both quantitative and qualitative education market research projects.
VoicED has already rewarded two individuals who took part in concept testing research for the panel – they were both thrilled to have been chosen:
“I got a telephone call from VoicED telling me I had won £50 and I didn’t believe it but when the cheque arrived I just thought oh wow, just for doing a survey!”
Jacinta Mills – Buxton Community School
“It was a complete surprise. After doing such a short survey it was absolutely belting to receive £50 from VoicED for taking part! I will be sure to make more use of them in the future.”
John McTeigue – Harrop Fold School
DJS Research Ltd has a strong background in the education sector, with clients including Manchester University, NCFE, The British Council, Pearson, The Department for Education and Skills and the National Association of Head Teachers. The agency’s previous research has considered a wide-range of potential policies, new resources, teacher, lecturer and student satisfaction and the potential to introduce new courses of study, among others.
Elliot Simmonds, (left) who will manage the community on a day to day
basis, felt the move was a positive one for the northern agency, which has
recently moved to new, larger offices:
“VoicED is a great addition to our research offer and one which makes
sense given our strength in the education sector over the past few years.
The way we have chosen to thank respondents for their opinions should
lead to a highly engaged, involved group of education professionals who
are genuinely interested in developments in the sector. There’s also the
opportunity to expand the panel in time to offer additional features, but I can
confirm that none of them will ever involve unsolicited selling or advertising to our members – that’s not what VoicED is about.”
