Event Details:International Training on Research Design & Methodology, Data management, Analysis, Inferences and Reporting
INTRODUCTION
In order to conduct and evaluate any research, it is important to come up and embrace appropriate research Design & Methodology, Data management, Analysis, Inferences and Reporting standards for decision making. Without appropriate research design and methodology, the entire process is distorted interfering with the integrity of data collect leading to an inaccurate and inappropriate analysis of research findings. Improper statistical analyses distort scientific findings, mislead casual readers, and may negatively influence the public perception of research. This training aims introduce and enhance the participants’ knowledge on research design & methodology, data management, analysis, inferences and reporting of research findings. The participants will be exposed to Mobile Based Data collection using ODK, use of Ms-Excel and Statistical analysis software of interest (Stata/SPSS/R).
FOR WHOM IS THIS TRAINING INTENDED?
This is a general training targeting participants from Social, Agriculture, Economics, Food Security and Livelihoods, Nutrition, Education, Medical or public health professionals among others who wish to be conversant with the concepts of statistics, Research Design & Methodology, Data collection using ODK, use of GIS for mapping, Data management, Analysis using MS-Excel, Stata/SPSS/SAS/R Softwares and Inferences and Reporting. No prior knowledge is required.
