Course Organiser
Hal MacFie
Bristol
This course forms a hands-on introduction to those statistical
methods needed by a sensory scientist. Mainly based around
the use of SENPAQ and XLSTAT software, attendees will gain
practical experience using real-life examples and will be
able to save their work to take away with a free copies of
SENPAQ and XLSTAT so they will be competent to start using
their expertise from day 1 after the course.
