While they are different, both factors and clusters have the same primary purpose: to reduce the amount of data while remaining true to the original results. In this course, Instructor Julie Worwa will guide market researchers who plan to use these techniques on when to use them, how to work with a data analyst, and how to report the results.

INSTRUCTOR ADVICE
Instructor Kathryn Korostoff on the upcoming live session, Writing Quantitative Research Reports – June 2, 9, 16 & 23, 2022 @ 1:00PM – 2:30PM Eastern. Course Description. In Your Dashboard:
“Producing research reports that are objective, thorough, and insights-rich is hard, even for the most experienced market researchers. In this class, I enjoy sharing specific techniques researchers can use to write their reports without getting stuck in “analysis paralysis” or writer’s block. I’ve worked with hundreds of market researchers on amping up their reporting, and I almost always find that with just a few new reporting tactics, they can vastly improve their reports while still managing to meet tight deadlines. I also include lots of reporting examples so that the students can see real-world reports for design inspiration.”
