This workshop provides a comprehensive review of fundamental statistical concepts using the R software. Participants will revisit key topics such as descriptive statistics, probability distributions, hypothesis testing, and basic inferential statistics. The session includes practical exercises in R to reinforce understanding and application of these concepts.

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 analyzing survey data. Part 3 is a practical hands-on opportunity for participants to conduct basic data analysis using SAS on their own laptop.

This two-day workshop will be held in DC 1568. Registration is free for all members of the university.
