[Geoffrey Hubona]

The charitable, non-profit organization *Information Institute* (
http://www.information-institute.org) is offering two live, interactive,
synchronous online summer courses: (1) Using R for Statistical Research
Analyses (June 30, July 14, 21, August 11 and 18); and (2) Using R for PLS
Path Modeling (June 27, July 11, 18, 25, and August 8). Both courses are
each offered in the AM and PM to be available live in all time zones. Early
registration costs (through May 27) for either course is $250 USD faculty;
$150 students; and $295 practitioner.  All live, interactive class sessions
are also recorded and provided to participants for their repeated post-class
review.



*(1) Using R for Statistical Research Analyses I:* This course demonstrates
how to use R to conduct a broad range of statistical analyses for
publishable research. The AM course is offered online on non-consecutive
Thursdays (June 30, July 14, 21, August 11 and 18 at 11AM-2PM ET). The
informational and registration site for the AM course is here:
https://www.regonline.com/SRA-july-AM. There is also a section of this
online course for the Pacific Rim countries on Thursday evenings (same dates
at 6PM-9PM ET). The informational and registration site for the PM course is
here: https://www.regonline.com/SRA-july-PM.



*(2) PLS Path Modeling with R:* Participants learn basic and intermediate
techniques for conducting PLS path modeling using R. The AM course is
conducted online in five separate weekly Monday classes (June 27, July 11,
18, 25, and August 8 at 11AM-2PM ET). The informational and registration
site for the AM course is here: https://www.regonline.com/R-plspm-july-AM.
There is an additional section of this online course for the Pacific Rim
countries on Friday evenings (same dates at 6PM-9PM ET). The informational
and registration site for the PM course is here:
https://www.regonline.com/R-plspm-july-PM.



The R Project for Statistical Computing provides a comprehensive environment
for statistical analysis and graphics and is unrivaled in the availability
of new, cutting-edge applications. R is a very powerful system for
statistical computations and graphics, and runs on Windows, UNIX and Mac
computers. It is freely available for download from
http://www.r-project.org/ .



These live, interactive, synchronous online courses are conducted in five
separate, weekly 3-hour sessions including a pre-class session to ensure
that everyone has installed the R and R Commander software without problems.
All classes are recorded and provided to participants so, if you miss a
class, you will have the recording.
