ARCHIVE: Australian Ham Radio Discussion Forum ( AHRDF )

The WIA has released the first in a series of consultations that are structured to better understand the market in which the WIA operates. The first consultation is provided by way of a survey that is written to better understand what brought you to the hobby and what keeps you in the hobby. 

The survey is presented in two formats, a long and a short. The long version of the survey, which should take about ten minutes to complete, explores what brought you to the hobby, what keeps you in the hobby, and how you may, or may not engage with specific WIA products. The shorter version of the survey simply attempts to understand what brought you to the hobby, and what keeps you in the hobby. 

The short survey (2-8 minutes) is available via this Link 

If you wish to share the short survey you can use the address below:

The long survey (10-30 minutes) is available via this Link 

If you wish to share the long survey you can use the address below: 
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/WIA1 

Please take the time to complete either survey and encourage other people to also share their opinions. The surveys are open to anyone that has an interest in Amateur Radio. 

As we look forward to revitalising the WIA’s product set, the WIA thanks you for taking the time to complete either survey and helping to build a better organisation by letting your voice and experiences be heard. Your story is important. 

Done.

The long form survey only takes a few minutes - it is worth doing as the new management are at least asking questions of the membership.

Done mine now. 
Only took a few minutes to do the long one too.

Only question I had an issue with was the order / priority of WIA services. You can't prioritise apples and oranges so I left that one blank.

Make sure you do your survey.

WIA survey wants your views

In a part of the ongoing consultation process the Wireless Institute of Australia wants to measure the views of those in Amateur Radio.

No, you don’t have to be a WIA member, or even give your identity.The WIA asks a series of simple questions and the answers will be automatically handled by software to come up with the results.

Questions are about how long you have you been in Amateur Radio, what sparked your interest, awareness of WIA services, Amateur Radio magazine contents,volunteering and social media use.

It’s all about learning of your activity, motivation, and make-up, as the Institute sets its path for the future.

Please take a moment to complete the WIA survey found on WIA website www.wia.org.au to and encourage others to also share their opinions.
