FAQ

  • I don't have access to Mplus. Can I still benefit from this course?

    Absolutely. You can engage in the full curriculum using only the demo version of Mplus, which is FREE. Dr. Geiser will provide instructions about getting the demo installed on your computer.

  • I have pretty limited statistical training. Will I be completely lost?

    A graduate-level course in regression is helpful, but Dr. Geiser clearly explains key regression concepts in the course to ensure your success. The course is perfect for undergrads all the way through seasoned professionals.

  • There is no way that I will be able to set aside the three days required to take this course. Is the timing flexible?

    We understand completely! The timing is entirely up to you. Once you enroll and the course has launched, you will have unlimited access to the content. Take the time you need--but we do recommend trying to complete your training within a couple of weeks to keep your learning consistent.

  • Will you give me feedback on my analyses?

    Dr. Geiser is happy to answer questions related to course content and Quantfish promptly resolves any technical issues related to the course platform. If you are interested in personal consultation on your own data, please contact us to get started.
