Getting started with NVivo at UNSW Online

Why do this course?

Does your research see you working through unstructured and non-numerical data? With the ability to collect, store and analyse different data types all in the one location makes, it’s easy to see why NVivo is becoming the tool of choice for many researchers.

NVivo allows researchers to simply organise and manage data from a variety of sources including surveys, interviews, articles, video, email, social media and web content, PDFs and images. Coding your data allows you to discover trends and compares themes as they emerge across different sources and data types. Using NVivo memos and visualisations combined with the ability to integrate with popular bibliographic tools you can get your research ready for publication sooner.

You’ll learn:

• Create and organise a qualitative research project in NVivo
• Import a range of data sources using NVivo’s integrated tools
• Code and classify your data
• Format your data to take advantage of NVivo’s auto-coding ability
• Use NVivo to discover new themes and trends in research
• Visualise relationships and trends in your data

The Intersect approach to training

At Intersect, we work closely with our member universities to develop and deliver training that targets the day-to-day software and technology problems that researchers face. We deliver hands-on courses in a relaxed setting with knowledgeable, helpful trainers who are themselves researchers and who know how researchers work.
