Collect data
The guidance on this page will help you get ready to start your data collection process. Buckle up and let’s go!
This tool is publicly available for everyone to use. If this is your first time, you are requested to create an account and wait for approval – you will be notified when your account is ready. This serves to protect the validity of the portal and prevent spam. It also helps to keep your information safely stored so you can always return to your data collection from where you stopped. We do not share nor use your personal data for any purpose other than securing your account.

Navigating the Platform
Before accessing the tool for the first time, we recommend that you read the User Guide. This will help you understand what is expected from you in the different stages of using the tool and ensure you reach a successful completion of your data collection.
If you need more detailed technical support about how to create your account, access the system, start a submission, fill out the answers and review it, you can access the Step-by-Step Manual (coming soon). This will guide you with screenshots through every important step.
You should also read the sections on Types of Assessments and Categories for Data Collection, to make an informed decision about the scope of your data collection and the assessment that is best tailored to your institution and needs.
The Guidance for Responding to the Assessments can be useful to understand where to find the right data, the expectations for data references, and other relevant information which can improve the quality of your data collection process.
