The National Student Survey 2018 is now open and it is your chance to tell us what we\u2019re doing right, and what we can improve on. Moreover if you get in quick, both the University of Kent and Kent Business School are offering a \u2018thank you\u2019 for taking the time to offer your opinions. <\/p>\n

One of the most important barometers of your satisfaction with the facilities and teaching we are providing is open for your feedback. Running until Monday 30 April the National Student survey<\/a> (NSS) is available for final year undergraduates to offer their honest opinions which directly inform what both the University of Kent, and Kent Business School specifically, implement to improve.<\/p>\n

Get Involved, Get Rewarded<\/h2>\n

The survey itself is both simple and quick to complete \u2013 and for your peace of mind, it\u2019s completely anonymous<\/strong>. As a \u2018thank you\u2019 to all students who complete the NSS by Monday 12 February, the University is offering a \u00a310 Amazon Gift voucher. To claim this reward you simply need to forward your completion email to nssawards@kent.ac.uk<\/a> before the deadline expires.<\/p>\n

Kent Business School is going one step further and offering you entry into a Prize Draw for a \u00a3100 Amazon voucher. All KBS students who complete the survey in the first week, by midnight on Sunday, 28 January, will be eligible to enter. You just need to email your completion receipt to kbsugo@kent.ac.uk<\/a> by the deadline.<\/p>\n

How to Have Your Say<\/h2>\n

Getting your views heard couldn\u2019t be much simpler. To access the survey and your personal link, all eligible students will receive an email from independent market researchers, IPSOS Mori, on Wednesday 24 January.\u00a0Eligible students can access the survey before receiving their invite (and find out more) by going to http:\/\/www.thestudentsurvey.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Why is the NSS Important?<\/h2>\n

Quite simply, it helps to inform change. Surveys in recent years have enabled us to listen and respond. Here are some examples of how your voice has been heard:<\/p>\n
