Logistic Regression 5 Day Masterclass

Deakin Epidemiology is pleased to offer a 5 Day Masterclass focused on Logistic regression to be delivered by arguably the world’s most famous teacher of this statistical technique – Prof. Stanley Lemeshow.

This 5-day course (Feb 24-28, 2025) will provide theoretical and hands-on practical knowledge and skills in statistical modeling with an in-depth focus on logistic regression analysis – the standard method for regression analysis of binary, multinomial and ordinal response data in health research. Each day comprises a 4-hr class in the morning and a 2-hr practical session in the afternoon. Durring the day there will be plenty of opportunities to network with fellow health and medical practitioners and researchers.
