Mobile Data Collection for M&E using ODK and KoboToolbox Training Course

The Mobile Data Collection for M&E using ODK and KoboToolbox Training Course builds the specialist capability required to plan, deliver and evaluate mobile data collection for m&e using ODK and kobotoolbox in demanding, fast-moving operating environments. With rising scrutiny of performance and value for money, institutions need practitioners who can work to recognized standards and defend their decisions with evidence. This certified programme combines proven methodology with hands-on application, covering data security and ethical, emerging trends in mobile M&E and the analytical techniques that underpin sound professional judgement.

Throughout the programme, participants work through realistic scenarios drawn from banking institutions, financial services firms, audit practices, and public finance bodies, examining how mobile data collection for m&e using ODK and kobotoolbox is applied in practice and where it most often breaks down. Delegates will develop practical skill in designing appropriate frameworks, selecting and applying the right tools for data security and ethical, interpreting findings, and communicating conclusions clearly to colleagues, management and external stakeholders. Sessions move deliberately from principles to application, so that each technique introduced is practised against a realistic problem before the programme moves on — strengthening both individual effectiveness and the wider capability of the organizations delegates return to.

Upon completion of this training course, participants will be able to:

• Design mobile data collection forms
• Manage digital surveys using ODK
