The DHS Program Health Data Mapping course is designed to introduce elementary concepts that facilitates participants' ability to create maps related to health data.
This is a competency-based training and will equip participants with the knowledge, skills and abilities to use procedures and programs effectively during the Tabulation of a Demographic and Health Survey. Key aspects of the workshop will focus on generating and using finalization programs, processing "other” answers, producing and adding weights, creating a recode data set, and production of standard tables using raw and recode data. This includes all applications that the data processing team uses for table production. Although the attention will be directed towards a Demographic and Health Survey, the acquired skills can also be used for other types of surveys
This is a blended learning program and aims to provide professionals involved during the data processing of a Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) with the competencies necessary to prepare DHS based CAPI data capture programs and menu systems for the survey data management.
