This introductory session is designed to help new users become familiar with the fundamental features of MAXQDA. I will cover essential functions of the software and a guide for navigating its interface. The aim is to ensure participants feel confident as they start using MAXQDA for their qualitative analysis. During the webinar, I will utilize the sample project included in the software to demonstrate key features, such as document management, coding, and memo writing. Participants will gain hands-on experience to help them start their own projects in MAXQDA.
