EViews Introduction:
20th – 21st July 2023
28th – 29th September 2023
Online

This two day training covers the basic concepts of econometrics and time series analysis...

This course introduces the basic statistical tools that are commonly used in econometris. The focus lies on linear regression analysis in the context of time series.

At the same time EViews is introduced. EViews is the number-one software for time series analysis. It is easy to learn and easy to use. Thus it will support you in finding the right econometric models and make the most out of them.

  • Basic features of EViews
  • Answering economic problems with statistical tools
  • Perform simple linear regression
  • Validate the assumptions of statistical methods
  • Set up and interpret time series models in EViews

Requirements: Basic statistical knowledge is usefull but not required. No knowledge of EViews is required.

EViews Modelling: Complex Models:
3rd – 4th August 2023
9th – 10th October 2023
Online

This two-day-course is an advanced training for the analysis of economic time series data. We start with a recap of basic time series analysis and dynamic models in form of linear regression and ARIMA – models.

As a generalisation of that multivariate regression models and systems of equations are discussed. Vector–-Autoregressive (VAR) and Vector–Error–Correction–Models (VEC) are part of the training as a special case of systems of equations.

Final part of the training describes ways to model volatility of time series in form of Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity–models (ARCH, GARCH).


  • AR, MA and ARIMA models
  • ARDL – Dynamic regression models
  • Systems of Equations
  • VAR – and VEC – models
  • ARCH – and GARCH – models

Requirements: Participants should have a basic understanding of hypothesis testing, regression analysis and time series analysis in general.

EViews – Scripting:
31st August 2023
5th October 2023
Online

This one day course is all about the EViews scripting language. Starting with simple functions (data import, object declaration, ...) the participant becomes familiar with the typical syntax of the EViews scripting language.

The next step is to discuss the typical aspects of a programming language: loops, conditional statements, vectors and matrices. The training will cover database–access as well as graph customization and many real world examples.


  • Automatic data import
  • Overview over objects and commands
  • Loops and conditional statements
  • Database access
  • Vectors and matrices
  • Graph customization

For further details visit http://www.statcon.de or e–mail vertrieb@statcon.de

Requirements: Participants should be used to work with EViews and have a basic unterstanding of EViews workfiles and objects (e.g. series, equations). Basic programming experience is useful but not required.
