The microcredential Introduction to Study and Experimental Design is designed to help participants understand different experimental designs, formulate statistical hypotheses, and interpret the resulting data.

Experimental design is a fundamental tool for developing rigorous and efficient studies. Proper planning not only improves study quality but also helps optimize resources and enhances the ability to detect real effects. The course is divided into modules, each focusing on a different type of study based on the statistical techniques required for analysis: descriptive studies, comparative studies, and predictive studies.

Each session will cover study design principles, essential statistical tools, and the methodology of statistical analysis. To help participants apply the concepts to their own work or research, the course combines theory, examples, and practical exercises using the free software JAMOVI.*

*Participants must bring their own laptops to take this course.
