Subject: CENSUS WEBINARS AVAILABLE
To:
From: David Kraiker, Census Bureau
The following is a list of webinars that I will be running over the next
few months. There is always a "geography" element to each of these
presentations.
Additionally, I often show how to get health insurance/disability
statistics--so this might be of interest to some people. This is a
dataset I usually show when giving KNACK OF THE CENSUS TRACT.
Although these are my own webinars, please be advised that my colleagues
are also giving webinars. You can find all Census Bureau webinars listed
here (including mine):

My own webinars:
*MAP TAB LAB*
This webinar will explore the little-used Map Tab functionality within the
Census Bureau's American Factfinder portal. This is a handy tool for
those who like to select areas visually, or who work in GIS. Presentation
will show how to select data and download shapefiles from American
Factfinder.
