Why it’s Important If you conclude the data are not (yet) valid, they cannot be used for program effectiveness, program improvement or anything else. What do you do if the data are not as good as they should be? Answer: Continue to improve data collection through ongoing quality assurance Kasprzak & Rooney (2010) 35

Many Steps for Ensuring Quality Data Before Good data collection/Training Good data system and data entry procedures During Ongoing supervision of implementation Feedback to implementers Refresher training After Review of COSF records Data analyses for validity checks Kasprzak & Rooney (2010) 36
