[AISWorld] 2-for-1 offer for online R courses for August 2011 through June 2012

[Geoffrey Hubona]

The non-profit *R Institute* is augmenting their statistical software /
research methods course offerings using freely available R and PLS software
over the 2011-2012 academic year. We are offering a 2-for-1 advance
registration opportunity, between now and August 13 only, to reserve a spot
in any two of our online courses during the 2011-2012 academic year. For any
two courses, the student cost is $225 USD; the faculty cost is $295; and the
practitioner cost is $325.



Courses are offered on a continual rotating basis. Courses follow a five
week format (first 2 hour class is a ‘pre-session’ and four remaining 3 hour
classes are on same time and day for four more weeks). Courses are taught in
a live, interactive, synchronous online format offered in both the AM and PM
to accommodate different geographic locations. All courses are recorded and
the permanent audio- and video recordings are provided to the course
participants.



Currently, we offer the following existing courses on a regular basis:

1) PLS path modeling using R

2) PLS path modeling using SmartPLS and WarpPLS

3) Fundamentals of Using R

4) Using R for Statistical Research Analyses I

5) Using R for Statistical Research Analyses II



We are also adding the following new courses in the Fall and Spring:

6) Data Manipulation With R

7) Generalized Linear Models (GLM) and Generalized Additive Models (GAM)
using R

8) Linear Mixed Models (lme4 package) Using R

9) Introduction to Programming and Simulation Using R

10) Introduction to Data Mining with R

11) Others



We are offering a 2-for-1 advance registration opportunity, between now and
August 13, to reserve a spot in any two of the above online courses.
However, there are a limited number of ‘slots’ for this offer and it may be
withdrawn at any time. The student cost is $225 USD; the faculty cost is
$295; and the practitioner cost is $325. This advance registration offer
guarantees you a place in any two courses of your choosing through June of
2012. *R-Institute* personnel will manage the list of registrants to ensure
that everyone is placed in the classes that they want.



There is more detailed information on courses and schedules here (and you
can register here if you choose): https://www.regonline.com/2-for-1-public

which two courses you are interested in taking.



Sincerely,


Geoff Hubona, Ph.D.
