. Mini-Webinar 1: Quantitative Data Dr. Simon, CDPHE Chronic Disease Epidemiologist, presented an overview of quantitative and surveillance data, key Colorado surveys, and how to interpret survey results.
- Helpful Hint: Always check who is represented in the data and the confidence interval for accuracy, for example, if 8.3% of adults vape (BRFSS, 2023), the rate is likely between 7.5% and 9.1% (95% CI).
Mini-Webinar 2: Qualitative Data Nicole Zwick, CEPEG Evaluator, discussed how to take a deep dive into qualitative analysis, data types, and techniques, including a six-step process for analyzing Quarterly Progress Report data, from defining a purpose to coding, identifying themes, and sharing findings.
- Helpful Hint: Quarterly reporting data is a valuable qualitative source that can help analyze challenges and barriers while identifying key lessons learned.
Mini-Webinar 3: Quarterly Progress Reporting (QPR) Data Shannon Pray, CEPEG Evaluator, explained how Quarterly Progress Report data, both quantitative and qualitative, can be leveraged to track progress, identify challenges and facilitators, and inform future program improvements.
- Helpful Hint: Quarterly Progress Report data is more than a reporting requirement, it’s a tool to analyze trends, extract lessons learned, and tell the long-term impact story of your work.
