Software for Qualitative Data Analysis: Resources and Forthcoming events
[June 10 QSR NUDIST v4 (List should include a reference to this workshop
still being held on June 10 - but this course is full)].
24 June 1998 11am - 4pm : 'Early Use of Nud*ist' Clinic:-, part demo, part
hands-on workshop, part seminar format - for project specific planning:
To make the best use of QSR NUD*IST Version 4 requires a significant early
input/intake of information. This course is designed for a limited number of
potential users who have the time to provide themselves with early data
preparation ideas - and also to gain some early insight to maximising
advanced uses of the software.
Course Format:
The event incorporates introductory presentation and demonstration of
software - incorporating data preparation issues (for NUD*IST), index
system structure, and focus will then move to seminar format with a limited
number of participants discussing own data preparation issues with the
tutor, and advance thinking about Index/ coding related tools, 'creating an
index system structure which helps rather than hinders'.
There will be some hands-on exercises - but this is not the main emphasis of
the day.
A pre-event discussion with tutor concerning project, data, research focus
etc., would be useful
July/August 1998
Apart from events already scheduled see below, in July and August there are
likely to be overspill days held for Atlas/ti and NUD*IST - depending on
demand.

An ongoing programme of 1 day workshops will take place throughout 1998 at the
University of Surrey. These will mostly occur on Wednesdays. Overflow
events will be arranged where there is a significant waiting list. Fee
structure for one day events includes a limited number of free/reduced
places for postgraduate students.
'Project-specific' or events restricted to particular groups can also be
organised and held here at Surrey. Since these will allow administrative
savings to be made, lower fees can be negotiated.
All events are held at University of Surrey, GUILDFORD UK, unless otherwise
stated or requested.
