Overview
This workshop aims to help researchers and organisations get more out of the data they possess by using inferential statistics. You will learn how to go beyond just describing your data in terms of averages and percentages to making decisions about whether or not the findings from your data are significant. This workshop will show you how to use SPSS to perform analyses to check for statistical significance and interpret the data output in a manner relevant to your business.
