Data Quality Cleanup Session

Data Quality is one of the most important activities to be performed in HMIS. It is important that HMIS data is complete and accurate.  The Data Quality Cleanup Session is a chance to have Community Technology Alliance (CTA) help you correct HMIS errors in person. Data Quality Report cards and laptops will be provided, although we encourage you to bring your own agency laptop to allow those without to have access. Please make sure you RSVP at least 48 hours prior to the session so we can have a report card ready for you.
