Engages in additional system-related activities as established by agency or program leadership to support continuous improvement, statewide compliance, and effective program administration.
• Assists in developing SPP/APR-related training materials with a focus on high-quality data collection and data integrity. Conducts data-related training for internal and external stakeholders, as needed, and provides technical assistance to support accurate and timely data submission. Collaborates closely with the QA Specialist to ensure that training content and technical assistance align with the needs of the QA system, including reinforcing data quality standards and supporting QA-related evaluation activities. Assists with the design, development, implementation, and evaluation of data system training plans, incorporating QA priorities and ensuring that both program staff and providers are equipped to collect and report valid, reliable data.
