Training Description (Teams Webinar)

The Entering & Updating Existing Client Information and Managing Households  training is designed for experienced HMIS users who work with clients already in HMIS and are responsible for maintaining accurate, up-to-date records.

This training focuses on data quality, corrections, and best practices rather than new client creation or program-specific workflows.

This is an advanced training intended for users who already have experience entering data in HMIS.

This training covers:

  • Why data quality matters and how it impacts reporting and compliance

  • Conducting assessments for clients with existing HMIS profiles

  • Managing household changes, including adding and removing members

  • HUD verifications and changes to:

    • Income

    • Non-cash benefits

    • Disabilities

    • Medical coverage

  • Viewing and completing interim updates

  • Identifying and correcting common data quality errors

  • Knowing when to request assistance and escalation paths

  • Navigating available tools and resources for ongoing support

Completion of HMIS 101 and Workflow Training is required prior to attending this training.
