A step-by-step, interactive introduction to Python for participants with no experience with this software package. 

This intermediate course will help you choose from a range of statistical procedures to analyse your data. It aims to provide participants with an ability to understand, run and interpret these procedures. 

This course covers enough of the statistical material for the intelligent use of multivariate statistical techniques. The approach is informal and applied rather than emphasising algebraic manipulation or proofs.

Designed for mixed methods and qualitative researchers, this course covers data collection and research design, visualisation and basic analytic methods used in social network research.

This master-class has two objectives – to teach the design principles required to make plots that really have an impact on the reader, and to teach the practical skills required to create these plots within the R software package.

This short webinar demonstrates the set up and execution of an evaluation questionnaire. It shows how to use LimeSurvey for the first time, and gives some hints at the advanced functionality available for more experienced users.

Designed as an applied introduction to SEM using Stata, this course aims to provide participants with a sound understanding of when to use SEM and how to assess and report their models
