ASSESS: SPSS USERS' GROUP
ONE-DAY WORKSHOP: WRITING & USING SPSS SYNTAX
SCHOOL OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING
UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER, UK, WEDNESDAY 1ST JULY 2009

ONE-DAY WORKSHOP: WRITING AND USING SPSS MACROS and OMS 
SCHOOL OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING
UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER, UK, THURSDAY 2ND JULY 2009


ASSESS is an independent user group for SPSS, a computer package for analysing and 
presenting data. It is run by users, for users and is completely independent of 
manufacturers of the software. Between 1996 and 2008 ASSESS gave workshops on 
aspects of SPSS including syntax, macros, output management system (OMS) and Python.

Two one day workshops are provisionally planned to be held in the School of Electrical 
and Electronic Engineering, University of Manchester, Sackville Street, Manchester
  on 1st & 2nd July 2009 led by Chris Stride (University of Sheffield) and 
Peter Watson (MRC, Cambridge). These will cover SPSS syntax, macros and the 
output management system (OMS).

The workshops are open to users of SPSS who are familiar with the menu toolbar 
but have limited knowledge of syntax. Workshop topics are at 
http://www.spssusers.co.uk/Events/2009/index.html

Both days will be taught in an interactive hand-on workshop-style format,with frequent 
examples and exercises for participants to work through. A full set of notes and 
exercise solutions will also be given to all who attend. If participants have 
SPSS-related queries relating to their own data which they wish to explore, both 
tutors will be willing to (at least attempt to!) answer these at the end of each day.

Dr Chris Stride is the statistician at the Institute of Work Psychology,
University of Sheffield, and has over a decade of experience teaching both
statistics and SPSS to non-statisticians. 
Dr Peter Watson is a statistician at the MRC Cognition and Brain Science Unit in 
Cambridge, has been teaching SPSS for non-statisticians for 15 years and has 
given three talks to the SPSS users group. Chris and Peter led one day SPSS 
workshops at the Universities of Birmingham, Sheffield and Anglia Ruskin, Cambridge 
in 2007-2008.

Each day will run from approximately 9-45am to 4-45pm. The booking fee includes 
mid-morning coffee, buffet lunch and afternoon tea each day but not overnight 
accommodation. Further details will be sent out to delegates upon receipt of 
booking forms.
