SurveyCTO is one of the most reliable, secure, and scalable mobile data collection platforms for researchers and professionals working in offline settings. As you may be aware, data collection is a vital part of any developmental work. In previous years data collection used to be done on paper and pen which was prone to a lot of errors and difficult to conduct on large scale. With sophisticated workflows, robust quality control features, and real-time visualizations, SurveyCTO collects secure, high-quality data – even offline.

Program Objective

By the end of this training, the participants will learn to:

• Convert paper forms/questionnaires into digital forms that can be used for mobile data collection and case management
• Collect high-quality and secure data both online and offline using SurveyCTO
• Integrate SurveyCTO with other tools
• Carry out data and real-time monitoring during field data collection
• Build basic mobile application, install and use on phone.
• View, manage and export data compatible with statistical tools for further analysis

Target Audience

This program is aimed at participants who want to build their skills to author, deploy, and manage data collection for field research using SurveyCTO.
