The purpose of this knowledge base article is to support survey owners, administrators, and researchers in transitioning their survey instruments from QuestionPro to Qualtrics. As Virginia Tech moves to Qualtrics as its standard survey platform, existing QuestionPro surveys need to be recreated in a way that preserves their original intent, structure, and respondent experience as closely as possible.

This document walks through how common QuestionPro question types and features map to their closest Qualtrics equivalents, highlights areas where the two platforms differ, and offers practical guidance and reusable templates to help make the migration process smoother and more consistent across surveys.

The overall process is briefly shown using the process map below:

Please have a look at the table of content below for detailed step by step guide to facilitate the migration.
