Data Analysis Training Institute of Connecticut 2015 Summer workshops: www.datic.uconn.edu

DATIC (datic.uconn.edu ) offers professional development summer workshops in a variety of modern data analytic techniques. All workshops are applied and are geared toward researchers who wish to utilize these techniques in their own work. The maximum enrollment for all DATIC week-long workshops is 25 students, which allows for personal contact with the instructors and a great deal of hands-on learning. Although all workshops are introductory, they do assume familiarity with traditional statistical techniques such as multiple regression, as well as familiarity with a general purpose statistical software package, such
