Development of statistical training : note by the ECA Secretariat

Abstract

The following notes give a brief review of some aspects of existing training arrangements and suggest a few questions which appear to merit thought at the present time. The objects in raising these questions at the meeting of West African statisticians are to promote exchange of views between the countries and to obtain some guidance from the discussion on how ECA statistical training activities should be developed in the future. It is appreciated, however, that delegates may wish to introduce alternative or additional topics.
