STATA Fundamentals
Overview: STATA is a powerful tool for data management, statistical analysis and model building. Typically, before performing any type of analysis, one has to import, prepare and manipulate data. This course aims to introduce STATA’s most popular and useful commands and procedures to import, manipulate, transform and manage data as well as to perform some commonly used statistical routines. It is ideal for new or beginner level users who want to have a head-start and learn how to use STATA efficiently.
Who should attend? New or beginner-level users of STATA 11 or any previous version. This is a course for those who are considering purchasing or already own STATA.
Prerequisites: Analytical thinking is essential.
Regression Analysis with EViews
Overview: The classical linear regression model or regression analysis is the most commonly used technique in the field of applied econometrics. The course focus on several issues and challenges frequently encountered when building econometric models. Upon completion of the course, you will have gained valuable skills that will help you build statistically sound models and make efficient use of EViews capabilities.
Who should attend? If you can associate with one or more of the following statements, then this course is for you. • I have enough data but I do not know where to start from. • My models do not give the results that I expect. Am I missing something? • I want to build more advanced models and capture complex relationships. • My model fails one or more diagnostics. What shall I do? Are my results still valid? • I have built a number of competing models but I do not know which one to choose. • I am not generating the answers that I expected.
Prerequisites: Knowledge of EViews basics. Previous experience with data analysis is advantageous. Software Timberlake Consultants are official distributors of the following Software Packages:
