Caveat

K-State does not have a site license for NVivo. Student licenses are available by subscription for NVivo Windows or the Mac (which has fewer capabilities/features).  The subscriptions are for 12 month periods and available for about $99 or so a year.

QSR International trainings

QSR International offers video tutorials and both free and for-pay events.

An additional reference

Those who have already started using NVivo may want to refer to “Using NVivo: An Unofficial and Unauthorized Primer,” which is an e-book built on the Scalar platform that highlights various features of the tool.

Questions

Registration is not required.  However, K-Staters who want a formal record of their attendance may register via HRIS…or sign up in-person at the online event (and they’ll be credited shortly after the event).

If there are questions, please email shalin@k-state.edu or call 785-532-5262. Thank you for your interest.  All are welcome.
