UNDERSTANDING DEMOGRAPHIC DATA IN ADELAIDE AND CANBERRA

The aim of this one day course is to provide an understanding of the framework of demographic data and the processes which shape the population. The course covers the relationship between Census data and Estimated Resident Population data; components of population growth; population projections; estimating the population of small areas; some tools for analysing demographic data and population dynamics and costs $327 per participant (including a light lunch).

The course continues to be well received and is contributing to a better understanding and use of ABS's demographic data among a wide range of clients from Commonwealth, State and Local Government bodies, business and community groups.

The next course is scheduled for 15 March 2001 in Adelaide. If you would like more information or to register, please contact Natasha Radcliffe (natasha.radcliffe@abs.gov.au or (08) 8237 7347). It is likely that a course will be scheduled in Canberra in early March 2001.
