The agenda is being announced next week, but we already know that there will be a session on Day 2 about EVM2 that feature interesting case studies from several countries on how EVM2 was used to support continuous improvment. I'll share the exact time and session details next week.
Have a great weekend all!

- We are hoping to resolve the ADS authentication (problems logging in to EVM2 website) either today or tomorrow. Apologies for the inconvenience

Dear all, I've been informed that due to security concerns, the WHO IT department have just disabled external authentication to the EVM1 and EVM2 websites. This means that unless you have a WHO email account you will not be able to log in to either the EVM1 or EVM2 websites, or download or upload assigned questionnaires in the EVM app.
We are working with the WHO IT team on resolving this and hope to have the problem fixed within the next few days. Apologies for any inconvenience. Unfortunately we were not given any advance warning on this.
Dear all, in case you haven't seen it here is a new request from a UNICEF colleague regarding photographs:

The first set of assessment files submitted were incomplete - However, in view of wanting to see the heat map I had approved 10 out of 15 files that were submitted last week.
In order that the revised files be updated again it was necessary to "Unapprove" (send the approved file back in to the left side folder), by clicking on the X option on the rightmost side.
If we do not do this, the assessor receives a message stating "the file cannot be uploaded as it has already been approved".
Once the file is "unapproved", each assessor is able to upload his revised file and for the manager to receive the updated file. The date of the file apload appears on right side of the table in the "Pending Approval " List as a verification.
The new files need to be approved again as next step.

Hi, we are currently putting the finishing touches to the new EVM Manager Guide PDF. If you are interested in testing out the draft by following the instructions to conduct a self-assessment of one or more facilities using the new "My facilities" tool, please let me know and I can share a draft with you. Your feedback will be invaluable in finaising the document.
"This user guide provides national, subnational, and independent EVM managers with comprehensive guidance on how to use the EVM Manager website to create and deliver EVM assessments."
Many thanks, Dan
My facilities
Anyone with an EVM2 account can now manage and assess their facilities in the same way that countries do. Each user has their own private environment they can use to set up their vaccine schedule, tracers, ISC parameters, and locations and then create and deliver EVM assessments. To access "My facilities", next to the EVM logo at the top of the screen ensure that "My facilities" is selected.
Capacity calculator
For questions in the app that require the assessor to make a calculation relating to storage capacity (for example, the new storage capacity of a refrigerated vehicle or cold room), there is a new tool that makes this easier. Just look for the calculator icon under relevant questions.
Multiple site selection
The site selection in an EVM assessment is designed to ensure that a nationally representative sample of facilities is drawn. This means that comparisons between the performance of administrative units (for example, provinces or states) in an assessment cannot be reliably made, which prevents gaining greater insight into sub-national performance variance (a vital lens in ensuring equitable immunization service delivery). To address this shortcoming, it is now possible to create EVM assessments that use standardised, individual site selections for each administrative unit. While this invariably means that more sites will included in the site selection, it also means that comparisons between provinces and states will be possible.
Heat-map comparison
A new type of report has been created on the EVM2 website that enables the performance of locations, administrative units, or even entire assessments to be compared directly to one another and viewed in a single heat-map.
Programme questionnaire app delivery
For full national EVM assessments that require a questionnaire on immunization programme performance to be delivered, the programme questionnaire can be assigned, downloaded, completed and uploaded on the EVM Assessor app in the same way as location questionnaires.
Improved CSV export of reports
Better error reporting on locations import tool
We hope you find these updates useful and please report back if you have any questions or suggestions on future improvements.
