  DATA NEWS
AND UPDATES
   
  THUMBS UP FOR FREE STATE – FULLY ACTIVE ON NATIONAL DDD!
   
 
  These “new kids on the block” are hardly new to data-driven decision-making, but the Free State team’s presence on the national DDD Dashboard is growing in leaps and bounds. Since migrating from their previous version of the dashboard late last year, the team has:

• Registered more than 1 335 education officials on the national dashboard.
• Successfully tested province-wide weekly data submissions.
• Seen more than 500 officials actively using the dashboard in Term 2 alone.
• Hosted and attended 37 webinars and in-person training events.

This growth is testament to the EMIS and district teams’ dedication, and we look forward to hearing their success stories in the months to come.
