This workshop is designed to introduce researchers to the use of large, secondary data sets in health-related studies.
The Nevada Minority Health and Equity Coalition hosted a series of live workshops from June 2022 to March 2023 on a variety of topics that aim to build capacity of community organizations to address health disparities in Nevada. These workshops are recommended for anyone engaging in health equity work. Workshop details can be found below on this page.
We have adapted the live workshop recordings into on-demand courses so that the content would be available for viewing at your convenience. The materials that accompany each workshop, including slide decks and handouts, are available for download.
For a limited time while supplies last, we are offering FREE BOOKS for those who watch the workshop recordings and complete the post-survey for each of the on-demand courses.
