DESCRIPTION:The aim of this course is to provide participants with an under
 standing of missing data\, its link with what is to be estimated in a stud
 y (the &ldquo\;estimand&rdquo\;)\, and statistical modelling approaches. T
 he 2 day course includes workshops: participants will undertake a number o
 f practical exercises on missing data in SAS.\nThe course will provide par
 ticipants the opportunity to gain insight into some of the more useful new
  methodologies for missing data\, with a view to being at the service of t
 he real scientific question of interest. Multiple imputation (MI) will be 
 emphasised &ndash\; due to this method&rsquo\;s flexibility.\n\n\nAttendee
 s will require a laptop with access to SAS.\n\nThe following topics will b
 e covered:\n&nbsp\;\n- History of research into missing data\n- Prevention
  of missing data and impact on study power\n- Missing Data and its relatio
 n to the estimand\n- Estimands and their models\n- Multiple imputation I: 
 models for missing data\n- Weighting I: weighting for missing data\n- Mult

 augmenting weighed data with model estimates\n- Composite endpoints\n- Cas
