+++ By the end of the year, all training courses will take place as online seminars +++

The Research Data Center (Forschungsdatenzentrum, FDZ) holds regular training courses on the preparation of NEPS data. If required, these events are held in English. Participation is free of charge; the maximum number of participants in face-to-face meetings is 20. Registration is required; please use the following form below for this.

The schedule includes one and two-day data trainings, which are mainly aimed at preparing analyses based on NEPS data. The corresponding exercises for data preparation are based on Stata, but no special previous knowledge is necessary.

• The focus of the one-day events as well as the first day of the two-day events is on general familiarization with NEPS data including documentation and on basic steps of data preparation by means of practical exercises. These introductions are independent of a specific NEPS starting cohort.

• In addition to the general part on the first day, the two-day events give an insight into selected topics of NEPS data use. Both training days can be attended together or separately.

• In face-to-face meetings it is possible to register for access to remote data processing via RemoteNEPS as part of the training course. Details are given in the respective program.

* Due to the current situation, the data training will take place as an online seminar.
