SABER Education Management Information Systems
"Short reference sheet for the SABER approach: Information is a key ingredient in an effective education system. Effective education policymaking in a country requires information about the inputs, resources, governance, operations, and outcomes of its education system. An education management information system (EMIS) provides systematic, quality data in a structured environment
that enables utilization of the information produced in planning and policy dialogue.
SABER-Education Management Information Systems aims to help countries improve
data collection, data and system management, and data use in decision-making, thereby
improving different elements of the education system and contributing to the end goal of
improving learning for all children and youth."
