Training Programme on 'Basic & Advanced Data Analysis using SPSS' - 22nd - 25th April 2008, New Delhi, India
When most people think of data analysis, they think of complex mathematical formulae. However, the advent of computer software programmes such as SPSS that can be used to analyse data, has meant that people do not have to know or learn mathematical formulae in order to be able to perform quantitative statistical analyses. Nowadays, all one needs to know, are the appropriate analyses to perform on the data and how to do it so as to obtain the information that is needed. Training Programme organized by Sambodhi Research and Communications is one such initiative to provide an advanced understanding of ways to analyse data.

In the SPSS series, Sambodhi is announcing a four day training programme on Basic and Advanced Data Analysis using SPSS from 22-25 April 2008 at New Delhi. The programme is seventh in the SPSS series, the earlier programmes being subscribed by leading agencies and projects that include UNDP, UNICEF, CRS, Worldvision, Wateraid, Winrock, Actionaid, PHFI, PSI, CARE, BBC WST, HLF PPT, MPRLP etc.

The training programme would provide information and skills on the basics of using SPSS for informed decision-making. Specifically, the programme is aimed at:
* Developing better understanding of basic concepts of statistics
* Providing an overview of the computer assisted data analysis and statistical softwares
* Developing requisite skills for bringing in data into SPSS and data transformations
* Enhancing knowledge base and develop skills for selecting appropriate analyses and performing the analyses
* Augmenting knowledge and skills for interpretation of analyses and presentatation in user friendly formats.

Upon completion of the training programme, participants would be able to Input data into SPSS, select appropriate data analysis techniques, perform requisite analyses using SPSS, interpret the data output for various decision- making needs and present output to specific users in user friendly manner.
