Introduction:

Econometrics provides a quantitative foundation for analyzing economic relationships, testing theoretical assumptions, and interpreting empirical patterns through statistical methods. It integrates economic theory, mathematical relationships, statistical inference, regression analysis, and data interpretation to support evidence based economic and business analysis. This training program explores econometric principles, statistical analysis techniques, regression models, hypothesis testing, and analytical capabilities using SPSS. It provides a structured perspective on how econometric methods and statistical software support the interpretation of economic data and the evaluation of relationships among economic variables.
