*Apologies for any cross-posting *
The Health Experiences Research Group (HERG), at the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, University of Oxford runs a highly-regarded programme of core qualitative research methods short courses, including the one-week Introduction to Qualitative Research Methods<https://www.phc.ox.ac.uk/study/short-courses-in-qualitative-research-methods/introduction-to-qualitative-research-methods> (QRM), Introduction to Qualitative Interviewing<https://www.phc.ox.ac.uk/study/short-courses-in-qualitative-research-methods/introduction-to-qualitative-interviewing>, Introduction to Analysing Qualitative Interviews<https://www.phc.ox.ac.uk/study/short-courses-in-qualitative-research-methods/analysing-qualitative-interviews>, and Introduction to NVIVO 12 for Windows <https://www.phc.ox.ac.uk/study/short-courses-in-qualitative-research-methods/introduction-to-nvivo> (Note that our one-day Interview, the two-day Analysis, and our NVIVO courses are scheduled together so that participants can opt to book and attend any or all of the short courses in one visit to Oxford.)
Our courses are always popular and have few places, so please book early to avoid disappointment.

INTRODUCTION TO QUALITATIVE INTERVIEWING
18th November 2019 (13 Places Left)
02 March 2020 (21 Places Left)
"The course has been fantastic! Many thanks for the clear and useful teaching - handouts, clips. All instructors were enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. Really brought qual methods to life. The experiential work was especially useful."
This one-day course is aimed at health professionals, researchers, academics and postgraduate students who have little or no experience of qualitative interviewing. Everyone is welcome, regardless of research background. Previous courses have attracted researchers from a wide range of disciplines including health professionals, social scientists and educators. The only requirements are an interest in qualitative interviewing and the desire to conduct better interviews. The course provides hands on practical experience of different qualitative interviewing skills.

ANALYSING QUALITATIVE INTERVIEWS
19th -20th November 2019 (9 Places Left)
03rd -04th March 2020 (23 Places Left)
"It has been a real privilege to attend a course led by such high quality, high calibre speakers - sharing the theory but intertwined with the reality of their own experiences and interests and passions - making it meaningful and real for those of us who are researching in the real world."
This two day course is aimed at health professionals, researchers, academics and postgraduate students who are planning to undertake or manage qualitative research using in-depth or semi structured interviews or those who have already collected qualitative interview data which they are unsure how to analyse. Everyone is welcome, regardless of research background. The course introduces the principles and practice of qualitative interview data analysis, with particular emphasis on thematic analysis techniques. It uses a combination of practical workshops, group discussions and formal lectures. The course also gives an overview of other approaches to qualitative analysis.

INTRODUCTION TO NVIVO 12 FOR WINDOWS
21st November 2019 (11 Places Left)
05th March 2020 (14 Places Left)
This one-day course is delivered face-to-face in Oxford by the Health Experiences Research Group in the University of Oxford's computing centre. Through a series of practical sessions, the course provides hands-on experience across a range of data types (text-based data, images, video, social media) and in using different techniques.
The course is particularly suited to those already working on projects with a qualitative dimension, doctoral students who are looking for appropriate software to support qualitative data analysis, and those with previous experience in using different qualitative analysis software packages.
While it is aimed at the needs of health professionals, researchers, academics and postgraduate students, the skills developed here apply to many settings - so everyone is welcome, regardless of their research or professional background.
Note - Some previous knowledge of qualitative data analysis is required for this NVIVO course.

INTRODUCTION TO QUALITATIVE RESEARCH METHODS
16th-20th March 2020 (22 Places Left)
"This has been a fantastic week, an excellent combination of theory and practice. I feel much more confident to go back to work on my project. This should be an example to others of how to run a course. Excellent."
Delivered over five days in Oxford, this one week long training course provides hands-on practical experience of different qualitative methods including in-depth interviewing, focus groups and ethnography, as well as developing skills in thematic analysis. It is particularly suited for people who are starting work on a project with a qualitative dimension, doctoral students at the beginning of their projects, and those who are thinking about using qualitative research methods for the first time. The course also provides a useful introduction or refresher for researchers, academics, or managers who are supervising students or those doing qualitative research projects.
While this course is aimed at health professionals, researchers, academics and postgraduate students, the skills developed here apply to many settings - so everyone is welcome, regardless of their professional or research background.
The course is very much weighted to practical sessions and participants will have the opportunity to present a research proposal, practise interviewing and observation skills, facilitate focus groups, and analyse data. There will also be an optional evening session covering video interviewing, and a guest speaker presentation, plus other activities.
