From biomedical, public health, and educational research, to studies in the behavioral, computational, and social sciences, effective qualitative data analysis plays a critical role. Accurate and reliable coding using computers is central to the qualitative research process. For this reason, we have created the Qualitative Data Analysis Program labs at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the University of Pittsburgh. For new and experienced content analysis researchers, learning advanced project management skills adds hours of struggle in trial-and-error sessions. Experienced coders and project managers can deliver the large-scale, value-added annotated data you need in a timely and expert manner.  Please contact us for a personalized quote and more information. Basic rates set by the University can be downloaded here.
