Programs
Engage and Inspire Your Audience with Story Maps | Webinar (WI 18)
With a Story Map, you can combine your maps with narrative text that you create and edit on demand, images, and multimedia content to create compelling, user-friendly web apps (known as Story Maps) that simply tell the story of your data.
Enhancing the Impact of Your Research with More Effective Data Visualization (WI 18)
Clearly written text and well-designed tables and figures enhance understanding; poorly written text and poorly designed tables and figures create confusion.

This program introduces students to statistical computing with focus on the SAS package. Emphasis is on manipulating data sets and basic statistical procedures such as t-tests, chi-square tests, and correlation.
Monitoring and Evaluating the Impact of Public Health Programs (WI 18)
