Develop skills
- Design sample sizes: calculate efficient sample sizes accounting for margins of error, confidence levels, and design effects.
- Develop stratified sampling: create strata, allocate samples optimally, and apply benchmarks efficiently.
- Implement practical sampling: use simple random, cluster, and multi-stage methods on real-world data like shopper surveys.
- Control biases: reduce nonresponse and measurement errors through fieldwork strategies and weighting techniques.
- Produce clear reports: document, justify, and communicate sampling designs effectively to stakeholders.
