The International Economic Society (IES) is proud of holding the Fifth International Training & Workshop on Econometric Modeling and Data Analysis (ITWEMDA) in Famagusta, Cyprus, in September 21-25, 2015, for the purpose of training and improving the skills of academicians and graduate students as well as practitioners through the latest econometric and statistical modeling techniques.

Through attending the program, participants who have been active in the field of Econometric modeling and data analysis will find the opportunity to contribute to research related courses as well as theses at graduate levels, and to publish high quality papers in top high ranked international peer reviewed journals, such as the ones in Social Science Citation Index. In addition, participants from public and private economic sectors benefit from Econometric analysis studies and discussion on forecasting and estimation of future trends.

The active participation of academicians and professionals in similar IES workshops, held during the last five years from various countries such as Austria, Jordan, Libya, Malaysia, Romania, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Sweden, Turkey, and Northern Cyprus,  has raised our hopes to host another International event, this time in the cultural city of Famagusta.

Econometric Views (EVIEWS) 8.0 and GAUSS 11.0 will be extensively used during this training and workshop.
