Interviewers, who usually hold a first degree
in social science, are trained in a five-day training workshop immediately prior
to fieldwork. Teams of four interviewers travel together to the field
under the leadership of a field supervisor. It is the supervisor’s job to
ensure quality control of survey returns on a daily basis. Interviews
usually take about one hour and only proceed after respondents have given informed
consent. Strict confidentiality is required in handling survey returns.
