About EViews

Timberlake Consultants Ltd, the UK distributor of EViews, invite you to attend a following three days course in Central London.

The Course: Modelling and forecasting time-series data is often very challenging tasks. Parameter instability, model uncertainty, complex dynamics, unobserved variables, uncertainty regarding the stationarity of time-series as well as trend-like variables and over-fitting are some of the issues that can lead to poor model specification and low forecast accuracy.

This specialised course provides an in-depth exposition of all major issues a model builder needs to be aware of when dealing with time-series data, reviews several methodologies (traditional and modern) that have been proven very useful in analysing and forecasting time-series data and demonstrate them using real life data in EViews. The course aims to teach the science as well as the art (to the degree that it is feasible) of time-series modelling and forecasting.   

Topics Include:

Dynamic Models

Forecast Design and Evaluation

ARIMA Models

Structural Stability

State Space and Unobserved Component Models

Predictive Failure

VAR Analysis

Multi-model Forecasts & Model Averaging

Error Correction Models

Who should attend: The course is designed for applied economist and econometricians who are required to use time-series methods for analysis and forecasting and have some experience with econometrics.

Pre-requisites: Good understanding of statistics and regression analysis and work experience with econometrics. Familiarity with EViews fundamentals is highly advantageous.
