The training introduces the use of statistical software STATA for quantitative data analysis.  Participants will understand both the principles of statistical methods and how to apply these with real data using said software.  STATA is a comprehensive integrated package for data management, analysis and graphics.  The course is a prelude to beginners doing survey research and an enrichment course for experienced researchers.  Sample datasets will be provided during hands-on exercises and workshops.  Participants will be grouped and made to work in generating outputs that will be presented on the last day of the training.

What will participants gain?

By the end of the course, participants should be able to use STATA in the analysis of most common types of problem encountered in statistical research. They should be able to use STATA commands in basic and intermediate statistical computations and generating statistical graphs and charts.

Who can participate?

The course is recommended for researchers and statisticians who wish to learn STATA for data analysis work.  Participants must have proficiency in the use of MS Excel and sufficient background in basic statistics.
