This is a service housed at University College Cork, the url of which is sumi.ucc.ie/en/ (for the English language version - other language versions are coming onstream with demand.) You can see the questionnaire on this link but you'll need a password to be able to send data.
This service provides a detailed report as a collection of html pages.
Apply to HFRG for a password, specify the start and end dates, and agree on a contractual date for the delivery of the final report. The cost of this service is € 650 + VAT per report.
Please remember that having a SUMI evaluation done for nothing is a gift I choose to award to a fellow academic, it is not a right for you to have! If you are a student, I need to be sure that you are doing bona-fide academic research that will lead to a qualification, preferably with a publication to follow. If you are a teacher or professor, then please contact me at jzk@ucc.ie for a discussion about how we can work together to provide an educational SUMI service to your students. Please read the details on the academic applications page. You do not need to fill out an order form for this service.
This service is primarily intended for labs who want to do a quick in-house test. You will get a questionnaire in pdf form and a licence for the period of your data collection. You make as many copies of the questionnaire as you need. When you have gathered your data, you sent a file of data to HFRG who will then produce a standard SUMI output and send it back to you by e-mail.
The required formats for sending data to HFRG are given on the formats page. If data is not provided in this format, it can't be analysed.
Dates for submitting and sending data back must be agreed upon beforehand. The usual turn-around time can be very short (a few hours) if you have arranged this beforehand with HFRG. The cost of this service is € 1,300 + VAT.
For a large scale survey, or a survey with additional questions, you will have to contact Dr Jurek Kirakowski at jzk@ucc.ie to discuss your survey and get a quotation for the cost of it. Customisation will include:
