SUMMARY:NVivo Training
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 3 and Thursday 4 December 2025 | In person \n\nDay 1
  – Introduction to NVivo – setting up your qualitative database\nDay 1
  offers a rounded introduction to NVivo and focuses on the requisite manag
 ement decisions and choices one should make at the beginning of one’s pr
 oject\, such as what is my data? What format is my data in? What are my un
 its of analysis and observation\, and what data analysis methodology am I 
 using? Should I code audio or transcripts\, and what are the advantages an
 d limitations of either approach? How to manage focus groups. How does the
  software work? How can I work in teams? Why should I integrate my backgro
 und information or demographics\, and what is auto-coding\, and how might 
 it help to better understand my data and prepare it for the cycles of manu
 al interpretive coding to follow? What role do AI tools play in qualitati
 ve data analysis\, and what are the limitations? Day 1 has an emphasis on
  the conceptual\, although the afternoon is rooted in the practical. By th
 e end of day 1\, participants should be able to set up an NVivo database\,
  back it up\, import their data (that's any kind of data)\, set up a codin
 g structure and code their data to it and set up and integrate their demog
 raphics\, profiling information or closed questions from a survey. See fu
 ll course outline attached.\n\nDay 2 – NVivo Underway – analysing your
  data \nDay 2 assumes these decisions have been made and focuses on analy
 sing\, retrieval and reporting on data. And whereas day 1 is largely conce
 ptual\, day 2 is mainly practical and technical in nature. Most people un
 derstand that setting up your database correctly is paramount to getting a
  return on the time and energy expended in learning the software tool. Giv
 en that manual interpretive coding in NVivo is not really any faster than 
 using a manual system because you still have to code line by line\, the be
 nefit of using NVivo is in the retrieval and reporting of codes. Day 2 the
 refore focuses on interrogating (querying in database terminology) retriev
 al and reporting on results so that findings can be supported with high qu
 ality outputs or appendices. Also\, the ability to support your coding pro
 cesses with a clear audit trail (codebook for example)\, means that you ca
 n also demonstrate rigour for your methodology chapter which helps to esta
 blish your credibility as a researcher and by extension\, trustworthiness 
 and plausibility to your findings. See full course outline attached.\n\nTh
 is is a 2-day course\, please only sign up if you're able to attend on bot
 h days. There are limited spaces available on this course\, once these are
  filled we will be operating a waitlist.\n\nThis will be a practical cours
 e using data sets from your research\, so please confirm below that you wi
 ll have data ready to work with on the day of the course.\n\nWho is it for
 ? This session is open to staff and PGR Students.\n\nBook here: https://fo
