FineResults Research Services would like to invite you to take part in our upcoming workshops on Research and Statistics courses at our FineResults Services training facilities in Nairobi, Kenya or online. 12th to 16th July 2021 Effective Data Collection Management and Visualization 18th to 20th August 2021 Effective Data Collection Management and Visualization 13th to 17th September 2021 Effective Data Collection Management and Visualization INTRODUCTION Evidenced based policies for sustainable development and better lives call for better data. Improving the capacity of people involved in data collection, analysis and report writing in ensuring quality data is of significance. Following the changing data environment from use of paper in capturing data to use of digital innovation, there is need to train actors involved in data collection to help them adapt to the upcoming innovations and technologies. Some of the data that are collected through the new technologies include geospatial data, mobile phone, administrative data and citizen-generated data among others. This 5 days course will equip participants with knowledge on research design, designing data collection tools in mobile data collection enabled software, GIS and remote sensing, exporting data to various data collection software, data analysis and interpretation.
