Data Entry Operator skill test terminologies:

Following terms are used to define a data entry operation skill:

WPM (Words per minute): How many words you can type in one minute?

CPM (Characters per minute): How many characters you can type in one minute?

KPH or KSPH (Key Strokes per Hour) or KDPH (Key Depressions per Hour):

How to convert WPM into KPH/KDPH and vice vesra:

In most typing tests, a "word" is defined as five keystrokes. That is:

KPH = WPM x 5 x 60 = 300 x WPM

WPM = KPH / 300.

What should be your data entry speed?

What is the average typing speed? What should be your typing speed to become a data entry operator? These questions must be bugging you now.

Well, an average person types 20 to 25 wpm. For the professional data entry operators, the average speed is around 36 wpm (10800 KPH). But the minimum typing speed defined in most of the data entry operator skill test is 8000 KPH (i.e. 27 WPM).
