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.

This webinar also demonstrates how to get data at the tract level—within the American Factfinder portal.
