Course overview

Timberlake, the official distributor of EViews, would like to invite you to attend the following 2.5-day course to be held in Dubai. UAE.

The fields of econometrics and statistics are constantly expanding providing as a result great advances in quantitative methods to analyse and forecast data. At the same time, econometrics and statistics are becoming more confusing in the sense that the modern menu of methods is so vast that a practitioner may find difficult to choose the appropriate methodology or the practice that best fits a quantitative task.

This course provides a review and practical guide to several major and popular econometric methodologies used in time-series analysis. The objective is to provide a practical and systematic approach to econometric modelling and make sense of the vast amount of available econometric techniques. Each methodology discussed is illustrated with real data examples in EViews.
