This course assumes no previous knowledge of qualitative data analysis or NVivo, but requires basic understanding of qualitative research. Only the basic features of NVivo will be taught.
This seminar-type course provides a highly interactive online teaching and learning environment, using state of the art online pedagogical tools. It is designed specifically for a demanding audience (researchers, professional analysts, advanced students) and is capped at a maximum of 12 participants so that the Instructor can cater to the specific needs of each individual participant.
This course teaches you strategic understanding and applied skills in planning, conducting, and reporting the process of qualitative data analysis (QDA) in one’s research. The course combines theory, applied exercises and demos in NVivo.
