NVIVO - a method for analysis of qualititative data in Research & Development

The software package NVIVO is a feasible, comprehensive and versatile tool for researchers to have qualitative data and material coded, analysed and reported for a variety of purposes. One may import material and data in many formats; interviews or other events as transcripts, sound-files or video, public documents, letters, social media.

The course will give an overview of how to handle this abundance of material, process and analyse them and produce reports for research papers and other publications.
