About this course

 

Instead of collecting data using paper and pen, which is then manually entered into a database for analysis, KoboToolbox enables us to enter data directly into a mobile device that is capable of uploading data directly into a centralized database for data processing and analysis.

 

KoboToolbox is a free and open-source platform for the collection, management, and visualization of data.
