Hello,
This email contains upcoming opportunities to help develop an AIRA data quality guide and to participate in a Tableau user group.
Request for Volunteers to Develop an AIRA Data Quality Guide
AIRA's Modeling of Immunization Registry Operations Workgroup (MIROW) Steering Committee (SC) is looking for subject matter experts (SMEs) to volunteer for a short-term workgroup. The workgroup will create a Data Quality Assurance Guide that will repackage and update the two existing MIROW guides on data quality (Data Quality Assurance in IIS: Incoming Data and Data Quality Assurance in Immunization Information Systems: Selected Aspects) as well as the Lot Number Validation Best Practices Micro-Guide. As a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to work with a diverse group of SMEs in the IIS field to craft best practice recommendations for the entire IIS community.
In January 2021, the workgroup will do an intensive set of five half-day virtual meetings to develop best practices. In addition to the January virtual meetings, the workgroup will meet monthly for one-hour calls from December 2020 through August 2021. The workgroup will also review the draft guidance and provide feedback.
We are looking for SMEs with knowledge and experience working with IIS data quality. We are especially interested in SMEs with experience with the following topics:
- Data quality during the onboarding process
- Ongoing monitoring and evaluating of incoming data and data at rest
- Facility identification management in the IIS
If you’re interested in being considered as a volunteer SME for this workgroup, please email Beth Parilla by the end of the day on Friday, October 30 with your name, organization, job title, email address, and a short paragraph describing your experience.
The MIROW SC will review all submissions and make final determinations by November 20. For more information about MIROW, please go to www.immregistries.org/mirow. If you have questions about this workgroup, email Beth Parilla.
Are You Using Tableau?
Are you a current Tableau user? Do you want to expand your skill set? Or are you interested in learning Tableau to visualize and communicate your IIS data more effectively?
In the next few months, AIRA will kick off a Tableau user group. To make it worthwhile and beneficial, we want to ask you five quick questions. These will help us gain a better understanding of your status regarding IIS data visualization.
If you currently use Tableau or want to become a user, please take 30 seconds (yes, it’s really that short!) to let us know you are interested. Click here to access the survey, or email Courtnay Londo for details.
Thank you,
