“The instructor really explained just addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. I was impressed.”

“Now I’m happy because I became able to read the academic thesis, and now I’m reading it day after day and every day”.

This training will equip you a set of practical statistical analysis techniques in two days. It includes (i) easy-to-understand theoretical background; (ii) how to operate Excel; (iii)detailed hand calculation using only addition, subtraction, division and multiplication (+, -, ÷, x), and (iv) how to read thesis papers in professional journals (economics, sociology, education, evaluation, etc.). Maybe you will surprise because you think “Is it possible using only Excel and simple hand-calculation?”.

You can see the participants survey results posted below and those make you understand and become in confidence about our achievement.

A certificate of achievement will be awarded for those who complete the 3 days training.

※ The word in the title , “professional”, is the same meaning of differentiation of Academic School/Professional School in American Universities.
