Hi everyone, We are pleased to announce that PR Stats will be running a live online course on Multivariate Analysis of Ecological Communities Using VEGAN from September 15–19, 2025. Multivariate Analysis of Ecological Communities Using VEGAN
Analyse ecological community data in R using VEGAN. Learn ordination, clustering, and multivariate statistics with real datasets. https://www.prstats.org/course/multivariate-analysis-of-ecological-communities-using-vegan-vgnr08/ This immersive five-day training (7 hours per day) offers a practical, hands-on introduction to powerful multivariate methods in community ecology using the R *VEGAN *package. What sets this course apart: to ensure that participants from diverse time zones can join live, *two practical sessions will be scheduled specifically with global accessibility in mind*. All sessions will be recorded and made available the *same day*, and—if you find it helpful—we can even provide access to recordings from previous years *in advance.* *Course Highlights* - Hands-on training with real ecological datasets spanning terrestrial, wetland, microbial, palaeoecological, and natural resource management contexts. - Core multivariate techniques: ordination (PCA, NMDS, RDA, CCA), clustering, distance measures, and community metrics. - Emphasis on reproducible workflows in R and visualisation best practices. - Bring your own datasets for tailored support in data transformation, analysis selection, and interpretation. *Logistics & Registration* - *Format:* Live online - *Dates:* September 15–19, 2025 - *Fee:* £485 (standard); £445 (early bird — now sold out) This course is an excellent opportunity for ecologists, environmental scientists, data analysts, and researchers eager to master multivariate community analysis in R while accommodating flexible scheduling needs. To register or learn more, please visit the course page on the PR Stats website. Feel free to forward this to colleagues who might be interested or reach out if you have any questions about the practical sessions or the curriculum. Best regards, Oliver -- Oliver Hooker PhD.
