Sponsorship Opportunities


Join Us in Supporting QRD

The Qualitative Research Division of MRIA is dedicated to promoting and enhancing the field of qualitative research.

In 2012, this day-long event will feature a keynote address from Susan Abbott, of Abbott Research and Consulting in Toronto.

LEARN – a great opportunity for client-side researchers and research practitioners at all levels to gain a better understanding of qualitative research – getting the most out of it, how and when to choose it as a methodology, and how to apply the learning.

EXPLORE – developments, techniques and options for qualitative research. When is the best time to use a new technique or adaptation? When is it best to stick to the tried and true? Moderators can add some skills to their toolbox, client-side researchers can hear and learn about different approaches .

EXPAND – increased knowledge about the inner workings of qualitative research. Trends and challenges in recruiting, improving relationships between field, moderator and buyer, get tips on new technology and tools for running your business.

Please come partner with us, and show your support for qualitative research.

Take advantage of this unique opportunity to reach about 150 buyers, moderators, recruiters and facility managers.

See old friends, meet new ones, and network with your peers. Help QRD host this great event, so we can all Learn, Explore and Expand our qualitative knowledge.
