Course 2: Medical Statistics using SPSS

In this course, you will learn biostatistics concepts. The course starts with an introductory section for basic concepts of biostatistics then you will start working with the SPSS program to apply these concepts.  You will learn the skills that you will need to apply the most common statistical methods and skills in your research project. The course is 100% practical, with different real examples for each test that will help you master different parametrical and non-parametrical statistical tests for presenting the data. The course will also include a chapter on making graphs and charts to help you present your data. The course will help you how to learn and apply standard statistical tests: association tests, the difference between groups tests, survival analysis, reliability testing, prediction tests and regression analysis.
