摘要：The Education Management Information System (EMIS) plays a significant role in helping the education policy-makers, decision-makers, and managers in Malaysia to make timely and good decisions. This requires high quality data to be made available to relevant people. However, EMIS has been plagued with data quality problems. Education data is important for the purpose of macro level administration and management. These data include staff emoluments, teacher deployment, school development, decision making, policy analysis, and evaluation that were gathered through the State Education Department from schools throughout the country. Since data collection involves the processes of importing, merging, and exporting at various levels, factors such as lack of facilities and skilled staff, or even data manipulation errors can affect data quality. The study aims to measure the EMIS data completeness using custom tools and to identify possible causes for EMIS data quality problems. Analysis indicates that EMIS data completeness has achieved the desired level of completeness targeted by its developers. Practical suggestions for improving the quality of EMIS data collection are presented
