Categorical Data Analysis 2
This course continues the analysis of categorical data, contains a review of logistic regression, and introduces multinomial responses for logistic regression, probit, logit and loglinear analysis. Tuition: $369 Next dates available: - November 12, 2010 - May 14, 2010
Bootstrap Methods

Missing Data Analysis
This course will cover the theory and practice of two modern methods of handling missing data: maximum likelihood and multiple imputation. Tuition: $369 Next dates available: - To be Announced.
Introduction to Resampling Methods
The course introduces the basic concepts and methods of resampling methods, including bootstrap procedures and permutation (randomization) tests, with little or no complex theory or confusing notation. Tuition: $299 (1 CEUs) Next dates available: - July 02, 2010 - February 26, 2010
Modeling in R
This course will show you how to use R to create statistical models and use them to analyze data.
Tuition: $369 Next dates available: - October 22, 2010 - February 12, 2010
Modeling Count Data
This course deals with regression models for count data; i.e. models with a response or dependent variable data in the form of a count or rate. The course will cover Poisson regression, the foundation for modeling counts, as well as extensions and modifications to the basic model.
Tuition: $369 Next dates available: - October 22, 2010
Introduction to Bayesian Statistics
This course will introduce you to the basic ideas of Bayesian Statistics. You will learn how to perform Bayesian analysis for a binomial proportion, a normal mean, the difference between normal means, the difference between proportions, and for a simple linear regression model.
Tuition: $369 Next dates available: - October 01, 2010 - February 26, 2010
Modeling Longitudinal and Panel Data
This course covers the extension of Generalized Linear Models (GLM) to model varieties of longitudinal and clustered data, called panel data.
Tuition: $369 Next dates available: - July 02, 2010
Spatial Statistics With Geographic Information Systems
Spatial statistical analysis uses methods adapted from conventional statistics to address problems in which spatial location is the most important explanatory variable. This course will explain and give examples of the analysis that can be conducted in a geographic information system such as ArcGIS or Mapinfo. Tuition: $369 Next dates available: - December 17, 2010 - May 14, 2010
Statistical Analysis of Microarray Data with R
This course will acquaint you with the process of microarray data mining from beginning to end. You will learn how to how to preprocess the data, estimate gene expression patterns, cluster genes to detect interesting gene expression patterns, and classify experiments (subjects) based on gene expression patterns. Illustrations of the statistical issues involved at the various stages of the analysis will use real data sets from DNA microarray experiments. Tuition: $369 (1 CEUs) Next dates available: - October 22, 2010 - April 23, 2010
Meta Analysis
This course will explain meta analysis - the methods that are used to assess multiple statistical studies on the same subject and draw conclusions.
Tuition: $399 Next dates available: - December 03, 2010 - July 09, 2010
