Analysis of Survey Data: 101 and Beyond

Though the workshop will not go into mathematical details and proofs, it will provide some reasoning and intuition behind the key formulas used in survey sampling. It will also look at various examples using the statistical software SAS (free to students, faculty and staff at the University of Waterloo). In addition to illustrating basic data analysis techniques, those examples aim to provide guidance on some of the pitfalls of analysing survey data. Part 3 is a practical hands-on opportunity for participants to conduct basic data analysis using SAS on their own laptop.

This is two-day workshop will be held in M3 3127. Registration is free for all members of the university.
