ATLAS.ti is a leading qualitative data analysis tool used to organize, code, analyze, and visualize unstructured text, audio, video, and image data.
This is a practical, hands‑on training course to enable researchers, analysts, and other professionals to effectively manage and analyze qualitative data using the ATLAS.ti software.
Participants learn to take raw qualitative data inputs, such as interview transcripts, focus‑group discussions, and documents, and transform them into systematically coded, organized datasets.
The training covers:
- Project setup
- Document and file organization
- Data segmentation & quotation management
- Coding strategies and analysis/visualization
This training course is ideal for researchers, analysts, program implementers, journalists, health professionals, and others who work with qualitative data and need qualitative analysis skills.
