The 2017 American Statistical Association Conference on Statistical Practice aims to bring together hundreds of statistical practitioners and data scientists—including data analysts, researchers, and scientists—who engage in the application of statistics to solve real-world problems on a daily basis. 

The goal of the conference is to provide participants with opportunities to learn new statistical methodologies and best practices in statistical analysis, design, consulting, and statistical programming. The conference is designed to aid applied statisticians in improving their abilities in consulting with and helping customers and organizations solve real-world problems.

  • Learn statistical techniques that apply to your job as an applied statistician
  • Learn how to better communicate with customers
  • Learn how to have a positive impact on your organization
