Susenas Processing Training in March 2019

The National Socio-Economic Survey (SUSENAS) collects data relating to socio-economic conditions of the community which include: health conditions, education, fertility, family planning, employment, housing and other socio-economic conditions. SUSENAS 2019 is held 2 (two) times a year, namely March and September 2019.

The processing of data on the 2019 National Socio-Economic Survey (SUSENAS 2019) is a follow-up activity after field data collection was conducted. In order for the information generated from this activity to be correct, accurate and in accordance with the facts in the field, before the process of recording data, the activities of Receiving Batching and Editing Coding were carried out. This series of activities is part of the pre-computer data processing activities that must be done carefully.

The stages of processing generally consist of two stages, namely pre-computer and post-computer. Both of these stages must be done well to be able to produce quality data. The pre-computer processing stage consists of receiving batching, editing coding, and document storage. While the post-computer stage consists of processing data entry and processing data with validation.

In order for data processing activities to take place well in accordance with the established standard operational procedure (SOP), human resources are needed that understand the stages of processing as a whole well, so that this training is needed.
