Due to popular demand, NAHDAP will again host the FREE course “Secondary
Data Analysis and the National Addiction & HIV Data Archive Program
(NAHDAP)” in the 2016 ICPSR Summer Program.


This three-day workshop will support participants in planning and
conducting secondary data analysis using existing datasets, especially
those available from NAHDAP. Each participant’s experience in the workshop
will be individualized to her/his own interests, background, and needs.
Workshop sessions will include presentations focused on the nuts and bolts
of secondary data analysis followed by hands-on time in the computer lab to
work on participants’ projects. Participants need to come prepared to dive
into their analyses and write papers during the course. People who attended
last year are welcome to apply to attend again.
