Présentation de NADABAS - un système de base de données de comptes nationaux - au Ghana

Date: November 2020

By Statistics Norway

Ghana has been searching for a tool to organise and compile their national accounts for a while. During 2019 staff from the Ghana Statistical Service was introduced to and given a demonstration of NADABAS.

NADABAS is a useful tool for countries that use Microsoft Excel in compiling their national accounts. Though still using Excel, NADABAS provides a more robust solution by replacing links between workbooks with a database. It is a tool for designing an organised national accounts compilation system to improve the quality of their national accounts.

Due to travel restriction, videoconferencing will be used for training. A standard training package is expected to consist of a series of six to eight training sessions. Each session will take up to two hours and will go through the complete set up of the production accounts, include some theory, examples and exercises. The technical training will be provided by experts from Statistics Norway’s national accounts division.
