SELV updates
Tatenda conducted SELV introduction and training to four people at Maputo DPS, including EPI chief.
Had problems when creating their user accounts (did not get emails nor did password settings by him work)
Reminded him that this is a known issue that Josh raised with him last Fall
Temporary work-around is: (1) Tatenda creates users in the system and informs Josh and Vidya (2) Josh manually verifies all the users (3) Tatenda then uses "reset password" feature to provide these new users with their passwords

Reporting
Tatenda to have review meetings with all 4 provinces before end of the month; Dianna will circulate notes from these meetings
They will go through each workbook and get very specific information regarding which indicators/graphs/tables are needed and which are not useful.
