Overview

Become an expert in statistical analysis with the most extended SPSS course in 5 days

Are you a student or a PhD candidate? An academic researcher looking to improve your statistical analysis skills? Are you dreaming to get a job in the statistical analysis field someday? Are you simply passionate about quantitative analysis? This course is for you, no doubt about it.

Within a very short time, you will master all the essential skills of an SPSS data analyst, from the simplest operations with data to the advanced multivariate techniques. The good news – you don’t need any previous experience with SPSS. If you know the very basic statistical concepts, that will do.

And you don’t need to be a mathematician or a statistician to take this course. This course was specially conceived for people who are not professional mathematicians – all the statistical procedures are presented in a simple, straightforward manner, avoiding the technical jargon and the mathematical formulas as much as possible. The formulas are used only when it is absolutely necessary, and they are thoroughly explained.

Very important: this is not just an SPSS tutorial. It does not only show you which menu to select or which button to click in order to run some procedures. This is a hands-on statistical analysis course in the proper sense of the word.

For each statistical procedure the following pieces of information are provided:

  • a short, but comprehensive description (so you understand what that technique can do for you)
  • how to perform the procedure in SPSS (live)
  • how to interpret the main output, so you can check your hypotheses and find the answers you need for your research)

Who is this course for

  • Students
  • PhD candidates
  • Academic researchers
  • Business researchers
  • University teachers
  • Anyone looking for a job in the statistical analysis field
  • Anyone who is passionate about quantitative research
