ISCA 2020 Applied Statistics Symposium is now inviting short course proposals in support of the annual symposium. The short courses will be offered as part of the pre-symposium program and held on Sunday, May 17, 2020.
Each proposal should be appropriate for either a half-day (four hours) or one-day (seven hours) presentation.
A half-day course runs either in the morning from 8:30am to 12:30pm or in the afternoon from 1:30pm to 5:30pm. An one-day course runs from 8:30am to 12:30pm and from 1:30pm to 4:30pm.
For a fulfilled short course, ICSA Symposium will offer honorarium and waive registration fee and banquet fee. The honorarium is $1000 for a half-day course and $1500 for an one-day course. The honorarium is shared by all instructors of a single short course.
The short course committee reserves rights to cancel pre-selected short courses due to low registration.
