Dear All I hope nobody will mind this post (and apologies for possible cross-posting).  I would like to call your attention to the 7th ECPR Summer School in Methods and Techniques week long course on Missing Data.  The summer school is held in Ljubljana, Slovenia from Aug 6-10.  The course will cover Amelia among other material.  You can find information about the summer school here: http://new.ecprnet.eu/MethodSchools/SummerSchools.aspx And specifically about the course here: http://new.ecprnet.eu/MethodSchools/2012_Ljubljana/CourseOutlines/D2.pdf Please also note my other course on good social scientific practices titles: "Data Problems and Solutions. Social Science Statistics in Practice" is offered in the first week of the summer school (July 30-Aug 3).
