A Short Introduction to ASReml-SA (ASReml_SA_01)


Description
(Course expiry: 90 days after purchase. Trial licence expiry 30 days)
In this course we will focus on the fundamentals of using the stand-alone application ASReml-SA version 4.2 for the analyses of experimental data to fit models for biological studies. ASReml-SA is statistical software that fits linear mixed models (LMM) using REML methodology and calculates BLUE and BLUP values.

This course looks at statistical aspects related to fitting LMMs, such as random versus fixed effects, heterogeneous error structures, multilevel models, and correlated observations, among others. We will also go through the ASReml-SA syntax for proper construction/specification of linear models (and variance structure) and their interpretation using relevant output.

For this course, we recommend that you have some basic understanding of linear models. You will have 30 days of access to this material to complete your training.

Do you have a licence for ASReml-SA version 4.2? As a participant of this training you have access to a free trial licence of ASReml-SA for 30 days. Once purchased you will be sent a licence and link to download the software within 24 hours. Please note this will ONLY be sent to the email from which you signed up.

Note: ASReml is not currently compatible with MAC arm64.
