Core staffs (statistical officers) were trained at the centre. They were sent to the concerned district statistical offices to train field workers (enumerators) at the district level and supervise field work. The field workers (enumerators) were the permanent staff of the district offices and central office.

Data were collected through a household survey by means of several separate questionnaires. In this regard, basically two types of questionnaire were used in this survey - the household questionnaire and the individual questionnaire.

The household questionnaire listed all members of each sampled household on the basis of usual place of residence. Some basic information of each person listed, like age, sex, education, marital status, place of birth and others was collected. This enlisted basic information was also used to sort out men/women eligible to administer the individual questionnaires. Besides the household questionnaire, another set of questionnaire of physical facilities available to each household was also administered at the household level.

Three sets of questionnaire were used to get information on migration, marital indices including recent child births and employment at the individual level. These questionnaires were administered to each eligible men/women as identified by the household roaster in the sample areas.
