This is a series of workshops designed to introduce participants to the Stata software. No prior experience with Stata is required. The sections are:

Section 1: The Basics of Stata – Interacting with Stata. (10/19 2-3:30)
Section 2: Working with Data Sets – Importing, opening, and saving data sets. (10/21 2-3:30)
Section 3: Data Management – The basics of maintaining and exploring a data set. (10/23 2-3:30)
Section 4: Data Manipulation – Creating and modifying variables and other ways of manipulating your data. (10/26 2-3:30)

You do not need to attend all sessions; however, the sessions build on each other and it will be assumed you are familiar with the material in earlier sessions. The workshop materials can be found at https://cscar.github.io/workshop-stata-intro/ for review.

It is strongly encouraged that you have a current version of Stata (version 16) available on your local computer, though not required. You may access Stata through midesktop (https://midesktop.umich.edu/) if needed. If you have an older version of Stata, some material may not work on your system.
