June 6 to 9, 2022 at QICSS (3535 Queen-Mary, Montréal)

This summer school is intended for university students and researchers who wish to conduct analyses with Statistics Canada administrative or linked data.

The summer school aims to develop participants' familiarity with the nature and content of the main administrative databases available in Statistics Canada's Research Data Centres (RDCs). It will also allow participants to master analysis and programming techniques adapted to this type of data and to the RDC environment. Participants will develop a familiarity with the main challenges and issues related to the analysis of Canadian administrative data and will be able to mobilize this learning in their own projects.

Prior programming experience and familiarity with common software and programming languages such as Stata, R or SAS are required; basic familiarity with Stata is recommended. Applications will be evaluated to ensure the level of prerequisites.

A scholarship to cover travel expenses for students living outside the Montreal area will be available.

Deadline: March 31st 2023.
Number of places available: 15.
