SPSS - Training

SPSS for Excel Users

This NEW one-day, introductory level course is designed for business people currently using Excel to perform business data manipulation and analysis. It teaches you how to use SPSS to easily read and manipulate database data, create business analysis reports from data extracts, perform basic statistical analyses (crosstabulation chi-square), and automatically repeat your work (syntax). Because of this limited focus, this starter course does not constitute a complete introduction to SPSS, as does the more comprehensive The Basics: SPSS for Windows training course.
