 g questionnaires\, conducting data entry\, and managing sampling and repor
 ting.Exchange of practices and challenges: Countries will share their expe
 riences and challenges in compiling trade in services statistics\, helping
  identify priority areas for support.Methodological best practices: The wo
 rkshop will address methodological aspects like data validation\, stratifi
 cation\, and extrapolation to align with international standards and impro
 ve data quality.Survey details for SITS: Sessions will cover survey compon
 ents\, such as enterprise identification\, EBOPS categories\, partner brea
 kdowns\, and modes of supply. https://unctad.org/programme/trade-services
