What: Learn to use a market-leading, point-and-click qualitative data management and analysis tool, NVivo, by performing common tasks, such as loading in data, coding, writing memos, and exporting.
Why: Learning qualitative data analysis skills and tools will help you organize and participate in qualitative research projects, gain insights into your data, communicate your findings, and stand out in the job market.
Software: Faculty, staff, and students at the University of Toronto can get a free license key for NVivo. Note: NVivo works differently on Macs vs Windows. If you are running NVivo on Windows, you should attend the Introduction to Using NVivo 15 for Qualitative Data Analysis (Windows Version) workshop instead.
Who: This workshop is designed for those new to NVivo 15. Skills gained can help participants working with qualitative data from any discipline: Humanities, Social Sciences, or Sciences. There are no prerequisites or assumptions of knowledge of statistics or programming.
When: Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026, 2-4pm
Where: MDL Data Lab, 5th floor of Robarts Library (Room 5031) [NOTE: This computer lab only has Windows Computers. For this workshop, you will need to bring in your own Mac laptop with NVivo already installed in order to participate in the activities.]
How: This is a 2-hour in-person workshop, consisting of a short lecture and then a series of demonstrations, which you can follow along with or just watch, interspersed with self-paced activities. There will be a short break in the middle.
