Data Collection and Management using CSPRO Training Course-01

Introduction

This training is designed to empower professionals and researchers with the tools and techniques necessary for efficient data collection, management, and processing using the Census and Survey Processing System (CSPro). CSPro is a widely used open-source software developed to facilitate the design, implementation, and management of data collection systems for surveys and censuses. By mastering CSPro, you will gain the skills to handle complex data tasks, ensuring high-quality data that drives informed decision-making.
By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge and practical skills to confidently design and implement data collection systems using CSPro, whether for small-scale surveys or national censuses.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand the Fundamentals of CSPro: Equip participants with foundational knowledge of CSPro, including its interface, components, and role in survey and census data collection and processing.
  • Create and Manage Data Dictionaries: Teach participants how to design and structure data dictionaries for organizing survey and census variables, ensuring consistent and reliable data management.
  • Design and Implement Data Entry Applications: Enable participants to create user-friendly data entry applications with built-in validation rules for desktop and mobile platforms.
  • Deploy Mobile Data Collection Solutions: Train participants to design and deploy CSPro applications for mobile data collection, ensuring real-time data synchronization and field data quality.
  • Export and Integrate Data for Analysis: Guide participants on how to export collected data into formats compatible with analysis tools like Excel, SPSS, or R, enabling seamless data analysis and reporting.
