Instructor Led Explanatory Training Classes

Project Management Using Microsoft Project 2003 Professionals and students who understand the theory and concepts of project planning, scheduling and control are often frustrated by the difficulty of apply them in Microsoft Project This course is designed to bridge the gap between theory and the practical use of MS Project. Using a simple case study and hands on techniques, students will learn how the software works under the covers. They  more...

Process Flow Chart training Process Flow Chart (PFC) is a method to allow people to understand the sequence of events that leads to the finished product or service. A PFC shows the inter-dependencies between events and allow members to visualize the individual activities of a process or service. A PFC can significantly reduce verbose explanatory notes with greater accuracy.  more...

Simple and Multiple Linear Regression Techniques This one-day workshop offers an overview of simple and multiple linear regression techniques, starting with the interpretation of results, strengths and weaknesses and also discusses their practical realization. Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: Explain the context of use of simple and multiple linear regression Understand what the underlying assumptions of  more...

Logistic Regression ...s a statistical tool used to assess the effect of several explanatory variables on a categorical response variable, that is a variable that can only take on a limited set of values. This situation is encountered often in several fields of applications. Here are a few examples of questions that can be adressed using logistic regression: Finance : What is the impact of the characteristics and  more...

Regression on Principal Components and PLS Regression ...n problems encountered in relating a variable to a set of explanatory variables, the interpretation of results, strengths and weaknesses and practical realization. Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: Know the context of use for regression on principal components and partial least squares regression Understand what the underlying assumptions of the techniques  more...

Nonlinear Regression This half-day workshop offers an overview of nonlinear regression. This special type of regression technique is commonly used to model growth curves and to establish relationships between dose and responses. We discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the techniques, their practical implementation and the interpretation of results produced from the use of these techniques. Upon completion of  more...

Life, Reliability and Survival Models This one-day workshop offers an overview of the modeling techniques used for life data (time-to-event) and their specific features, the interpretation of results, strengths and weaknesses and also discusses their practical realization. Several applications in the social sciences, engineering and life sciences will be presented. Upon completion of this training course, participants will have  more...

Logistic Regression ...s a statistical tool used to assess the effect of several explanatory variables on a categorical response variable, that is a variable that can only take on a limited set of values. This session covers logistic regression , a technique used whenever the response variable is binary or categorical, that is, when it can only take on a limited number of values. An example of a categorical  more...
