If you’ve mastered the basics of NVivo and are wondering how the software can take your analysis to the next level, then this is the course for you! In this masterclass we’ll take a deep dive into classifications and queries – while these are among the most powerful features of the software, they’re also the functionality that most researchers struggle to understand. In addition to introducing some of NVivo’s more advanced features, time will be put aside for participants to apply new learning to a project of their own.

By the end of this course attendees will have a good understanding of how to:

• Use both file and case classifications in their own projects (and understand the difference between these)
• Set-up cases to represent different units of analysis within an NVivo project
• Work with classifications as an advanced analysis technique
• Conduct advanced text searching, coding, matrix coding and crosstab queries, as a way of exploring data and investigating hunches
• Run compound, coding comparison, and group queries and understand when these are appropriate
• Work with sets, search folders, and advanced find

This masterclass is perfect for researchers who have a current NVivo project, and are wanting to get the most out of the software. You can work with your own project during the masterclass (or use the sample data if you’d prefer). We won’t be covering any of the basics, so it’s important that you’re comfortable with the basics of working with the software.
