The Workshop – Introduction to Basic Statistics P0001048 page now lists four scheduled sessions: September 15-16, 2026; November 17-18, 2026; December 3-4, 2026; and January 20-21, 2027. The Workshop – Understanding and Interpreting Data P0001040 page now shows one scheduled English session on November 24-26, 2026. Both pages now present selectable date and time options in the registration form instead of indicating that no workshops were currently scheduled, so the timing and registration process are materially different.
