Overview: This 3-day workshop is designed for the researcher who wishes to expand their statistical toolkit to include advanced modeling techniques but who may feel intimidated by statistics or may not have the time or resources to devote to a week long class. The 3-day workshop is divided into two different but complementary workshops: the first day and a half focuses on Multilevel Modeling and the second day and a half focuses on structural equation modeling including confirmatory factor analysis and latent growth curve modeling. Both workshops will be conducted in computer labs and consist of lecturing and hands-on practice with running models. The overarching goal of both classes is straightforward and pragmatic: You will learn when, why, and how to do each of the analyses using your own data.

Audience: Researchers in social sciences, education, and other applied fields.

Multilevel Modeling: August 10 (8:00am - 5:00 pm) -- August 11 (8:00am -12:00 pm)

Latent Variable Modeling: August 11 (1:00pm - 5:00 pm) -- August 12 (8:00am -5:00 pm)

Price: The price for either class separately is $300, and the price for both classes is $500. The total cost includes all class handouts/materials and readings posted prior to class. In addition, you will access the instructors via email prior to the workshops to assist you in preparing your data set so that you may analyze it on the first day. If you do not have appropriate data, the instructors will provide you with practice datasets.
