This one-week course, run in the beautiful city of Cape Town in South Africa, will present a brief but systematic overview of choice modelling and survey design theory and practice. Taught by Professor Stephane Hess from the Choice Modelling Centre (CMC) at the University of Leeds and experts from the University of Cape Town (UCT), the course will consist of a mixture of lectures, supervised computer practical in Apollo/R, and detailed case studies from within Africa and beyond. Bringing together expertise from fields as diverse as transport planning, water resources, health, marketing and environmental economics, the course will cover all the steps required for successful choice modelling analyses, from inception via survey design and data collection to modelling and use of results.
