Missing Data
Errors
Tampering with targets
Change of M&E Officers
RFU (AAU) will provide technical assistance where necessary to ensure accurate reporting and validity of data
RFU (AAU) proposes ACEs to report quarterly to allow time for “damage control”
All data submitted will be verified by the RFU (AAU) and an independent third party
Data on research publications and accreditation will be verified from Elsevier data bases and accreditation agencies
Verification will involve interactions with stakeholders including students
REMEDIAL MEASURES
TIMELINES & NEXT STEPS
1. M&E Workshop to discuss reports and issues
2. Work with ACEs to fine-tune reports
3. Submission of individual and global M&E reports to WB in December 2015
4. Work with independent Consultant on verification of results submitted
Details and other related issues to be discussed
during M&E parallel session.
