EPI INFO Training Manual for Nutrition Surveys
Save the Children UK has developed a comprehensive training manual to provide training on how to use EPI INFO specifically to analyse data from nutrition surveys. The purpose of the training manual is to provide users with the skills needed to process and analyse nutrition survey data. The focus of the manual and the practical exercises focus on nutrition data, however the skills acquired by working through this training manual will allow users to process and analyse data from other types of epidemiological surveys, not only nutrition survey data.
By the end of the training course, you should be able to:
- set up a database for nutrition survey data
- know how to set up constraints for data entry
- perform data entry
- analyse data from a nutritional survey
- report results from a nutritional survey
- produce graphical displays for anthropometric indices
- understand how to make conclusions about a population from sample estimates.
The training manual is in English and comes as a hard copy handbook with a CD ROM containing practice survey data and the EPI INFO software. This user-friendly manual can be ordered from Plymbridge Distributers at a cost of £20.00 (includes postage and packaging).
To order, please contact Plymbridge Distributers on 01752 202 301 or orders@plymbridge.com, quoting ISBN No. 1 84187 080 3
