Description: The main objectives of the course are: * to provide the participants with basic knowledge of using administrative registers to produce statistics; * to provide skills to build and update statistical registers by using various administrative sources; * to provide best practice in combining statistical surveys and register data; * to provide best practices on moving from survey based system to register based system (experience of the Member States that have completed this process – Nordic countries); * to provide best practices on reducing statistical burden by using statistical registers.
Target Audience: Methodologists and statisticians who are involved in the production of statistics potentially covered by administrative registers, in particular in the domain of social statistics. The course is targeted to any NSIs staff wishing to understand the possible ways of producing official statistics based upon statistical registers. Horizontal knowledge of different statistical areas and production steps in official statistics is welcome. ESTP Trainings are open to non-ESS members if capacity allows after ESS needs are fulfilled.

Description: This course will provide participants with an understanding of fundamental data mining methodologies and with the ability to formulate and solve problems using them. Particular attention will be paid to practical, efficient and statistically sound techniques, capable of providing not only the requested discoveries, but also estimates of their utilities. These lectures will be complemented with hands-on experience with data mining software, primarily R, to allow development of basic execution skills.
Target Audience: The course is targeted to Methodologists and statisticians who need to update their knowledge about social media data analysis. ESTP Trainings are open to non-ESS members if capacity allows after ESS needs are fulfilled.

Description: Training participants in producing small area estimates using surveys enhanced with administrative auxiliary data. Participants will also undertake practical exercises based on pseudo-real data. They will achieve a theoretical background on the foundations of small area estimation and training on applying small area estimation methods to real data with the R programming language.
Target Audience: Statisticians (and related professionals) from National Statistical Institutes or Public Institutions and teachers or researchers from universities. ESTP Trainings are open to non-ESS members if capacity allows after ESS needs are fulfilled.
