NVivo Foundations
We'll take you step-by-step through the basics of NVivo to ensure you're maximising your use of the software
Need to get to grips with NVivo fast?
NVivo Foundations is a series of seven modules that cover the basics of NVivo in a user-friendly way. Modules will take you step-by-step through the basics of project set-up and working with data, through to intermediate-level techniques such as setting up classifications and running queries. Watch courses in the specific areas you need, or the entire set of courses in sequence – the idea is that you can create your own learning programme from the collection. The self-paced nature of the courses means that you can learn when and where you need.
There are seven NVivo modules in total which are designed to be watched from start to finish, but if you’re familiar with the basics of NVivo you’re welcome to start with some of the intermediate-level courses. Also included is a course on transcription tips & tricks for those working with interview and focus group data, and if you’re new to qualitative data analysis there’s a session that will walk you through the basics of this process.

What researchers say about our content
The format of the videos was good – they were presented in small chunks with titles which made the watching easier. I found Lyn's talk very easy to follow and with the right tone and pace, very easy to listen to. I had attended few of her trainings beforehand which were also covered as part of Research Accelerator and I still watched them. This of course means I really liked the way Lyn facilitated the sessions and it was really good to refresh my knowledge. I would recommend Research Accelerator for anyone – experienced or not experienced.
Great coverage of material, well packaged and structured pieces of training, very well presented. The presenter was across all types of research and an experienced researcher who talked effortlessly to many points. The style [of the videos] was comfortable – a clear speaker with an easy tone. There were very few ums, ahs and mis-cues, which greatly added to the ease of listening. I thought it reflected the experience of the presenter and her desire to provide a well finished product – which it was.
This was a great opportunity. It has been the ability to go back over the information (especially in those areas that were especially relevant, or where I found it tricky) that has been exceptionally useful to me. As I am more at the start of my PhD journey, I am feeling so much more confident about the use of NVivo as well as a better understanding of some of the qual and quant approaches.
Research Accelerator provides an excellent introduction to NVivo for novices and is a great opportunity for others to refresh and upgrade their NVivo skill set. The videos were great and I am glad they were split into smaller chunks. Lyn is very organized and extremely knowledgeable about NVivo. She has a knack for simplifying complex features into simple bites with handy manuals for reference.
