Introduction to NVivo 12 (Mac Version)

Session Description

Qualitative research involves working with qualitative data sources, such as interview transcripts, reports, photos, and diaries. NVivo is a data management and analysis tool that helps work with these types of materials. This 2.5-hr workshop will provide an introduction to using NVivo 12 for Mac.

Through a combination of lecture and hands-on activities, participants will be able to
• Understand how NVivo can be used in qualitative research
• Use NVivo to load information, code documents, make notes, use cases, conduct queries, and export information
• Know where to go for more help with NVivo
