Trainerdetails
I hold a PhD in Educational Studies and have been utilizing MAXQDA for five years. I have utilized the past three versions of the software for two grant funded and one personal research project in that time, with several peer reviewed publications and proceedings papers, along with numerous research presentations. I have led training sessions at my university for beginning users, as well as working sessions where researchers can get real time support while working on projects. I have mentored several graduate students on using the software to support grant-funded projects.
