R-Project is an extraordinary resource for statistics and data analysis, maintained and supported by a wide range of researchers worldwide. R’s package system, simultaneously its greatest strength and most dangerous weakness, will be covered in sufficient depth so that participants will be able to exploit the strengths while avoiding the weaknesses. R is a language with its own grammar, vocabulary, phrases, and literature. Like any language, it can be extremely powerful for you once you have mastered a few fundamentals. Attend the course and join the R community!
Insight Statistical Consulting is running a two-day course on R-Project on May 28/29 2012. The first day will be an introduction to R Project course and the second day an intermediate/advanced R Project course. You are welcome to attend one or both days, depending on your requirements and R experience. Attendees are required to be computer literate, mathematically able, ideally with some statistical knowledge and some experience of data analysis. Venue: National College of Ireland.
The course is organised by Insight Statistical Consulting and will be hosted by Professor Antony Unwin from Augsburg University and Professor Cathal Walsh from Trinity College Dublin.
