Objective:

As part of its commitment to outreach and professional training, the International Statistical Institute (ISI) has agreed to co-sponsor a series of three short courses in Vietnam. These courses will be delivered by world-class experts with recognised international standing in the field.

The program is designed to provide participants with statistical tools applicable to a wide range of real-world problems, from data-driven decision-making in the environment to evidence-based policy development and scientific research. Each course will combine theoretical foundations with hands-on exercises, ensuring participants gain both conceptual understanding and applied skills.

By making this high-quality training accessible in Vietnam, the ISI aims to strengthen local capacity in statistical thinking and practice, foster professional connections, and contribute to the global exchange of knowledge.
