You have arrived at the website of the former ESRC Quantitative Methods Initiative

The Quantitative Methods Initiative funded by the Economic and Social Research Council and the Higher Education Academy (now Advance-HE) aimed to improve capacity in quantitative social science and make best possible use of the UK's world-class data infrastructure. It covered the entire educational life course from school projects to postdoctoral research and all social science disciplines. It included both research and teaching and learning. 

• Although the initiative website is no longer active, many useful resources are still hosted by the National Centre for Research Methods.
  
  
• You can still subscribe to the Quantitative Methods Teaching email discussion list
  
  
• Training events and courses from the NCRM training database (you might find the 'Quantitative Data Handling and Data Analysis' option on the Advanced search useful)
