We provide professional development in survey methods and statistics and contribute to a programme of short courses on survey methods. We have also developed a distance learning package, which prepares students for Royal Statistical Society professional examinations. With the National Centre for Social Research, London and the University of Surrey, we host the Centre for Applied Social Surveys (CASS), an ESRC research centre.
Our MSc Official Statistics was developed jointly with the Office of National Statistics to cover the core skills and knowledge needed by professional government statisticians working in the UK and in other countries.
