Abstract	The NEPS maintains a number of specific requirements of effective quality assurance in the context of data-collection. These requirements concern the recruitment and training of test administrators and interviewers as well as their continuous supervision and the monitoring of fieldwork. Challenges to the NEPS are based on the multitude of different instruments, the heterogeneity of respondents, and the complex logistics and variability of data-collection settings. The NEPS has assigned two data-collection institutes with expertise in differing core areas of empirical social research. The IEA Data Processing and Research Center (IEA DPC) focuses mainly on tests with children and adolescents in the general education system. The Institute for Applied Social Sciences (infas) has its focal point in interviews and tests with individuals in private households. Both institutes have approved concepts of recruiting and training their data-collection staff as well as reliable strategies of monitoring fieldwork. These overall concepts and strategies are realized by measures that are adapted to the specific requirements of the NEPS substudies. The NEPS works in close exchange and cooperation with both institutes 1) in the phase of recruiting and training the test administrators and interviewers and 2) in the phase of supervision and field monitoring during the current data collection. During the first phase, the NEPS sets the standards and specified content for the training courses-and also partly for the recruitment-and takes an active part in the trainings to some extent. In the current field phase, the NEPS controls the data collection by means of standardized reports from the data-collection institutes and visitations of surveys in the field and the call center as well as via a random selection of recorded interviews.
