The Center for Comprehensive Promotion of Reproductive Health (CCPRH) invited applications for data collectors for an integrated humanitarian assessment in selected Local Government Areas (LGAs) of five northern states. This guide explains what the CCPRH data collector recruitment 2026 call involved, what applicants were asked to submit and what to do if you missed it.
Important: Check Whether the Call Is Still Open
The call was published on CCPRH’s website on 13 October 2026, and news reports gave an application deadline of Tuesday, 20 October 2026. However, when I opened the official CCPRH job page on 19 October, it displayed a notice saying the job had expired. The page may close early, or the closing time may differ from the reported date. If you plan to apply, contact CCPRH immediately using the details on its website before you spend time on an application.

What Data Collectors Were Expected to Do
According to the published call, successful applicants would collect information from communities and service providers using approved procedures and electronic data collection tools. Duties include:
- Administering questionnaires.
- Supporting focus group discussions (FGDs) and key informant interviews (KIIs) where assigned.
- Assessing facilities and services.
- Documenting informed consent and protecting respondents’ privacy and confidentiality.
- Entering accurate data through KoboToolbox, Open Data Kit (ODK) or other approved platforms.
Data collectors must also attend mandatory training, tool reviews, role plays and field pretesting, take part in daily team debriefings, address data-quality queries, handle devices and field materials securely, and follow safeguarding, protection, gender-based violence (GBV)-sensitive interviewing and data-protection procedures.
What Applicants Were Asked to Submit
- A cover letter stating the position and your preferred state.
- A current CV of no more than three pages detailing qualifications, field experience, languages and electronic data collection skills.
The call stated that no payment is required at any stage of the recruitment process. The summary I reviewed did not give details on pay, contract length, education level or the exact LGAs, so do not assume any of these. Check the full advert on CCPRH’s site or ask the organisation directly.
Who Is Likely to Be a Good Fit?
Based on the duties described, a strong candidate would typically have:
- Experience with surveys, interviews or community research, ideally in humanitarian or health settings.
- Practical skill with mobile data collection tools such as KoboToolbox or ODK.
- Fluency in the local language of the state where they want to work, such as Hausa or Kanuri, alongside English. The call asks applicants to list languages.
- Comfort working in sensitive settings and following safeguarding and confidentiality rules.
This is a general guide based on the described duties, not a list of official requirements.
Safety and Scam Warning
The call states that CCPRH does not charge for recruitment. Do not pay anyone to “secure” a data collector job. Apply only through CCPRH’s official website or contacts, such as support@ccprh.org.ng or the phone number listed on its site.
