Greetings:
The Department of Geography and Police Studies Programs at the University of Regina are offering the "National Summer Institute for Statistical and GIS Analysis of Crime & Justice Data" (NSI) (see the web-site link: www.uregina.ca/arts/NSI/ ). This year the NSI runs from June 19-25.
The NSI is a 7-day, intensive workshop where participants are exposed to working with Statistics Canada's data sets, exclusively using ArcGIS for spatial analyses and SPSS for statistics.
The NSI is targeted towards practitioners from the field (police justice workers, etc.) and academics (students & researchers). A graduate credit option is available for graduate students.
The NSI is supported by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) as a valuable training program for its members.
In addition to an array of specialists in GIS, statistics and crime data, there will be guest presentations by Dr. Jeff Pfeifer of the Canadian Institute for Peace, Justice and Security: Dr. Kim Rossmo, the developer of Geographic Profiling: and Lew Nelson, ESRI Special Consultant on Crime Data Mapping.
Financial assistance for travel and accommodation is available.
