Spell Checking Job Titles

Here's a simple idea to help with data integrity. Write a report or query that pulls distinct job titles from TIMSS. Put the results into Microsoft Word, or similar application, and run the spell checker. When you find one that's not spelled correctly, search for it in TIMSS and fix it.

Note that if you are pulling job titles from customers or addresses it will affect where you search for the spelling mistake.

You can do this for other fields, product descriptions for example, where the words would be found in a dictionary.
