What is the training about?
Through the use of practical exercises attendees will see how they can operationalize a Logical or Results Based Framework and create the actual information system that can help them track their organization’s progress,coordinate their partners and take informed decisions based on real information.
The three days of the training will cover all the key aspects of the software, including a lot of new material on ActivityInfo 4.0, the latest version of the software. We will cover many functionalities such as creating databases, designing forms for various cases, managing users’ access, importing or adding data, working offline, creating pivot tables and more.
Who is the training for?
Participants of previous trainings came from the fields of Monitoring and Evaluation and Information Management but this training is also very useful for project or programme managers who want to get hands-on experience on using a web-based M&E software or want to introduce a new tool to their organization to improve their processes. Also this training is ideal for current users who want to expand their knowledge and learn how to use all aspects of the tool to make the best out of it (i.e. moving from data entry to designing the system for collecting information).
