INTRODUCTION
Data
collection and monitoring and evaluation (M&E) have always been an integral
part of development work. In the past, these tasks were performed with paper and
pen, which made them prone to error, difficult to conduct on a large scale, and
high in transaction costs.
ICT
tools such as mobile devices and software that allows users to create surveys,
collect, manage and upload data to storage facilities in real-time, have reduced
the conventional challenges associated with remote data collection and
M&E.
If
you have always wanted to learn how to collect, manage and analyze project data
using mobile devices, this training course is for you. This training course also
comes with additional M&E and GIS modules to help participants put the
skills acquired into perspective. The GIS module will help participants to work
with spatial data.
WHO
SHOULD ATTEND?
The
course is designed for different representatives: government, project teams,
NGOs, multi and bilateral development organizations, consultancies, etc, that
are typically employed as project managers and directors, M&E specialists,
technical specialists, and researchers.
DURATION
5
Days
COURSE
