BACKGROUND
its efforts to improve on the timeliness, accuracy reliability and availability of information to various users, the Ministry Education and Sports, in 1999, embarked on the design and implementation of a sector Educational Management formation System (EMIS) in which the district would be the focal point. The Ministry contracted M/S AED/Africon to sign and implement EMIS both by developing the necessary software and re-engineering practices and procedures. Decentralization of data processing in the EMIS has not taken off yet despite numerous efforts by the districts and the central government because of infrastructure constraints. However, a lot has been achieved in terms of data gathering and e struggle is still on. (Alluta Continua). | en_US |
