had no previous direct experience using SPSS, but have had a statistics
course, will be able to analyze survey data using SPSS by the end of the
day. While statistics will not be taught from scratch, the main statistical
tools used for survey data analysis will be reviewed and discussed. Participants

day-long workshop. This is a totally hands-on session.
