Target Audience

The goal of the conference is to provide participants with opportunities to learn new statistical methodologies and best practices in statistical analysis, design, consulting, and statistical programming.

The intended audience includes those statisticians, data analysts, researchers, and scientists who engage in statistical analysis, design, and consulting as a major component of their jobs. They may teach, engage in research, and perform administrative duties, but their main role is the practice of statistics.

A sizable portion of the audience will have graduate degrees in statistics or a related area. Others will have no statistics degree, but will have mastered their skills through coursework as part of another discipline and self-study.
