    Dear Colleagues
    Below please find a list of upcoming Livestreaming workshops available through Instats which may be of interest to you. Many of these workshops are associated with multi-workshop Structured Courses that provide broader coverage of a technique or software package while offering a 10% discount -- beyond Instats's already discounted prices. We offer workshops in English and Mandarin (中文) from globally recognized experts across a range of social and health sciences.
    Instats is the most advanced technology platform for PhD and Post-PhD research methods training in the world, with leading livestreamed and on-demand content, as well as research methods consulting with preeminent experts -- all available through the platform. Head over to instats.org today, and if you're a research methods expert or a member of a university group interested in partnering with us to offer content on the platform to generate new revenue streams, please get in touch at info@instats.org and we'd love to show you around the platform.
    Best wishes

    Interactions and Non-Linearities in Regression Models with Dave Armstrong - Livestreaming Jul 25 - Jul 27
    Many theories in the social sciences and beyond suggest non-linear or conditional relationships. Even if relationships of interest are assumed to be linear, it is important to test whether those assumptions are tenable. In this course, we consider how to diagnose un-modeled non-linearity in generalized linear models, how to estimate models with non-linear and/or conditional relationships and how to best present the results of those models to people who may engage with your work. An official Instats certificate of completion is provided at the conclusion of the seminar.

    Credible Qualitative Research with David Silverman - Livestreaming Oct 11 - Oct 13
    Qualitative research is often judged as if it were quantitative, with various critiques such as small sample sizes that can lead to the critique that it is not credible.
