What are the goals of these discussions? Enhanced planning for reporters from deeper consideration of laws, rules, collection devices and reporting REALD and SOGI questions and potential answers Data collection, storage and possibly use Files sent to APAC 3
How will the ask occur? How will your organization contact not only subscribers but also members to request completion of the REALD & SOGI information? What do you need from OHA to help that happen? Data intended to be self-reported as much as possible; young children will be an exception 4
How will the data be received? Likely many options, including mail (recommend machine-readable form) or web survey What do you need from OHA to help that happen? Work with E & I on any edits that occur at data intake 5
Where will the data be stored? Existing resource or new resource; access broad or restricted, etc. What do you need from OHA to help that happen? Current/draft Appendix J has 70 fields with some fields dozens of potential responses and select all that apply; not big by industry standards, but substantial 6
Will the data be used at the organization other than sending to APAC? Designing data management/table structure to support intended use requires knowing the intended uses What do you need from OHA to help that happen? If data analysis is desired, highly recommend analysis occur on processed data received from OHA rather than raw data. Use the expertise available. 7
