Statistical Consulting & Analysis

The association's statistical consulting and analysis services assist researchers, NGOs and businesses with study design, data collection and advanced analytics. These services enhance the validity of academic manuscripts, grant proposals and clinical trials by ensuring methodological rigour, accurate modelling and professional interpretation of results.

Quantitative analyses and statistics are the primary methods for drawing accurate conclusions from data, so the selection of appropriate statistical techniques is critical to the success of any research project. The association provides training to its statisticians, who help individuals, institutions, organizations and businesses with data collection, analysis, interpretation and problem-solving using statistical methods, offering expertise in study design, data quality and statistical analysis.

Experience has shown that too often researchers select a statistical technique not because of its value to the research question, but for its apparent sophistication, complexity or currency. The association can guide you to the techniques that will best describe your data, allow you to draw accurate inferences about target populations, and test your research hypotheses.
