Why Employee training and development surveys matter

Skipping Employee Training And Development surveys means missing crucial feedback that shapes both individual growth and company outcomes. If you’re not running these, you’re missing out on:

  • Talent retention: 94% of employees say they’d stay longer at organizations that invest in their learning and development. Regularly listening to their needs through direct surveys isn’t just nice to have—it’s essential. [1]

  • Better productivity: 88% of organizations have seen productivity improvements by actively measuring and improving their training programs. [1]

  • Identifying gaps: 71% of employees feel they aren’t getting enough training at work—which means there’s often a disconnect between what’s delivered and what’s needed. [1]

Capturing honest feedback helps you refine programs, address Employee concerns, and evolve learning formats. This isn’t just about “checking the box” on compliance. The benefits compound:

  • You get happier, more engaged employees who feel heard.

  • Your organization benefits from higher performance and reduced churn.

  • End results? More resilient teams, better upskilling, and smarter allocation of training resources.

Designing questions that reveal real insight

Great surveys depend on great questions. We’ve seen how easy it is to fall into the trap of “meh” survey questions that yield generic or unhelpful responses. Here’s a quick example:

  • Bad question: “Did you like the training? Yes/No”

  • Good question: “What aspects of the training did you find most valuable or least helpful, and why?”

The difference is night and day—one closes the door on feedback, the other opens it wide for actionable insights.

With Specific's AI survey editor, we help you avoid vague, biased, or leading questions. The AI generator pulls from expert-validated templates and research, adapting questions to your context. It even knows when to suggest multi-select, scale, or open-ended formats for richer responses.

Here’s an actionable tip: Always pair closed questions with a prompt for explanation. Instead of just “rate your satisfaction,” add “please elaborate on your choice—what worked, what didn’t?”

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

Ask once and move on—that sounds efficient, but usually it’s a recipe for shallow responses. AI in Specific takes a different path by asking smart, contextual follow-up questions in real time.

Here’s what happens if you don’t probe deeper:

  • Employee: “The last training was okay.”

  • AI follow-up: “What specifically made the training just ‘okay’ for you? Was it the content, the delivery, or something else?”

Without that follow-up, you’re left guessing. Was the Employee bored, overwhelmed, underprepared? This savvy, adaptive follow-up approach opens up a whole new layer of insight without additional effort—and saves time you’d otherwise spend emailing back and forth or chasing people down for more details.

If you’ve never seen this in action, try generating a survey here. Specific’s dynamic follow-ups make the process noticeably richer—it’s feedback that actually feels like a conversation, not a form.

These real-time followups are what make our surveys truly conversational, helping you collect context that’s both deep and actionable. Explore more on how our AI-powered follow-ups work.

Followups turn your survey into a conversation—a true conversational survey that gets to the heart of every reply.

Delivering surveys to Employees

Getting the right survey into Employee hands is critical. Specific offers two simple methods, each with its strengths for Training And Development feedback:

  • Sharable landing page surveys—Perfect for remote teams, distributed offices, or when you need a link to send via email, Slack, or internal newsletter. Just share the URL and let Employees respond from any device, anywhere.

  • In-product surveys—Ideal for companies with Employee platforms or HR dashboards. Trigger a survey inside your company’s own tools, so Employees give feedback right in the flow of work. Use this to capture reactions right after trainings or onboarding modules, while impressions are fresh.

For most Training And Development initiatives, landing page surveys are highly effective—easy to distribute, quick for Employees, and effortless to manage. In-product surveys shine if you’re collecting ongoing feedback within your HR software or learning platform.

Our AI surfaces key themes, recognizes subtle patterns, and even lets you chat directly with the results for deeper exploration, without touching a spreadsheet.
