      Introduction to statistics - 10-11 May 2012 & 24-25 October 2012      
     
Why attend?

This two-day course is designed for people who have little to no background in statistics or who need to refresh their statistical knowledge. The course will focus briefly on types of study designs, followed by explaining the basic principles involved in analyzing data (descriptively and drawing inference). First, basic statistical principles and statistical tests will be discussed and next those tests will be discussed in the context of clinical studies.

After you have completed this training course, you will be able to easily interpret data published in literature and understand why certain statistical tests have been performed. You will be able to communicate with your statistician and you will understand the statistical design of clinical studies.

No prework is required for this training.
