Data is a critical asset for any program, organization, or business. Poor-quality data degrades knowledge, leading to negative consequences in understanding of the world, situations, systems, or events, and poor decision making that negatively affects all aspects of life (health, social, economics, etc.).

Various factors influence data quality, and shortcomings in these factors will contribute to poor-quality data. As M&E practitioners, we must ensure that data collected is of the highest possible quality–whether in routine monitoring or in evaluations–so that follow-on actions and decisions based on the data are true and correct.

This three-module course will introduce participants to core concepts of data quality and how to structure data management systems for collecting and reporting data, as well how to assess the quality of data collected and reported.

At the end of this course, participants should understand:

  • Why data quality is important
  • The concepts and terminologies used in data quality
  • The elements of strong data management systems to enhance data quality
  • The components, tools, and processes of a Data Quality Assessment/Audit
