Alaska Homeless Management Information System (AKHMIS) Update from Institute for Community Alliance Alaska (ICA)
The AlKHMIS Policies & Procedures now require data entry staff to log in at least once every 45 days. If they do not log in for longer than 45 days, their access to AKHMIS is suspended, and they have to correctly complete a practice case to regain access. The reason for this policy is that data entry staff who only enter data infrequently have lower data quality; interacting with the database at least every 45 days can help ensure they maintain their familiarity with it.
