Statement of purpose/intent/workshop title and objectives…… Sense of the room…. Who’s here? Where are you from? What do you do? How does your job pertain to Data Validation?
4 years ago – we scrambled!! • Put together a team of about 10-12 individuals • Split up the state • Made onsite visits • LWIA’s were reluctant but cooperative and then inquisitive... • Validators differed on approach...
Year two… • We did not do on-site visits…...Why?? • The LWIA’s were extremely cooperative! • Data Validation result reports… Year three… • Files validated at a central location again… • Only two people did the validating (with a little help from a branch manager)… • The LWIA’s were cooperative but…
Bill Carillo presents in fall of 2005…. • Praised KY’s Data Validation process • Suggested that KY encourage all LWIA’s to implement in house Data Validation processes • One LWIA presented their in-house Data Validation process at the training In the Winter/early Spring of 2006, we asked all LWIA’s to select a point person for Data Validation and strongly encouraged all LWIA’s to implement in house Data Validation.
Year four... • Files were delivered to a central location again • Validators used DRVS software...glitchy! • Bigger sample – 1400 w/NEG participants! • Sample was more uniform, somewhat • Directors provided Data Validation results and opportunities to discuss
Next year... • May do some onsite visits • May review LWIA in-house Data Validation policies/procedures • Expect improved results
