Training Opportunities by Series

Nebraska Methodology Applications

The Nebraska Methodology Applications series began in 2006 to provide local faculty and students with an opportunity to learn about innovative researchers from the greater Omaha-Lincoln area. These presentations are designed to serve as introductory tutorials for applying methodological approaches in different contexts.

The goal of the series is for scholars to learn new methodological techniques or the latest thinking about a methodological approach. The presentations are video recorded and made accessible online (below).

Implementation Lessons From a Fully Online Pilot Intervention for LGBTQIA2S+ Teens to Reduce Dating Violence and Alcohol Use

This presentation will detail implementation processes and outcomes of a fully online intervention for LGBTQIA2S+ adolescents from across the U.S. Particular attention will be paid to recruitment, delivery and retention. It will also highlight the strategies the multi-state team used to address implementation challenges, some of which were unique to working in this post-pandemic context.

Nebraska Methodology Workshop Series

The Nebraska Methodology Workshop Series began in 2014 and was created to provide Nebraska scholars an opportunity to learn about the latest advancements in methodology directly from the methodologists who developed these advancements. While the series covers a wide range of topics, all speakers are world-renowned experts in their respective methodological areas.

The length and format of the workshops vary by speaker. To ensure every scholar in the audience has the background necessary to understand the material being presented, each workshop begins with an introduction to the topic and then builds to more complex material. The workshop ends with a keynote presentation that highlights the speaker’s latest work on the topic. Empirical examples and sample statistical software code/output are often provided by the speaker.

Each Nebraska Methodology Workshop Series event is video recorded and made accessible online for those who register for the workshop. Videos and materials are made available to non-registrants 12 months after the workshop date.

Emerging Scholar Workshop

The Emerging Scholar Workshop series began in 2015 and is designed to introduce established scholars (i.e., faculty) and emerging scholars (i.e., graduate students and post-doctoral fellows) to a wide range of methodological topics and tools.

The series provides three opportunities for emerging scholars to interact directly with the speakers: a research talk, a workshop, and a mentoring session.

  • The research talk focuses on the speaker’s current research, which may or may not be related to the topic of the workshop.
  • The workshop is split into two parts. The first half provides an introduction to the specific methodological topic and the second half is a hands-on session where participants apply these methods to real data using software—with the help of the speaker.
  • The mentoring session—which generally follows the workshop—allows emerging scholars to have an open discussion with the speaker on a variety of topics, including professional development and career advice.
While the research talk and workshop are open to all scholars, the mentoring session is for emerging scholars only. Due to the hands-on nature of the workshop and mentoring session, these portions are not video recorded. Workshop materials are only available to registered participants.
