The Effective Statistician Academy: Call For Trainers! 

[00:00:00] Alexander: Welcome to another episode of The Effective Statistician and today I have a really, really great topic. [00:00:10] Today I want to talk about how we can get more training to you as a statistician, as a data scientist, [00:00:20] as a programmer within the world of healthcare. My vision is to make it really, really [00:00:30] easy for people to train others, to help others, to provide education to others, and for people to [00:00:40] consume that.

[00:00:42] Alexander: The academy that I’m building is a collection of all kind [00:00:50] of different trainings. It is there to serve the community of statisticians around the world. I know that many [00:01:00] of us train others all the time. We train people in terms of programming. We train people in terms [00:01:10] of methods. We train people in terms of how to succeed in our organizations.

[00:01:18] Alexander: How to have a great [00:01:20] career. How to negotiate. All kind of different things. And I want to provide This training to [00:01:30] everybody in the world. I know that everybody has a different style of training and [00:01:40] everybody has a different preferences in terms of learning. And so I want to. Provide a rich experience. I want to make it [00:01:50] really easy for people to become a trainer and I want to make it easy for people to become trained.

[00:01:59] Alexander: And [00:02:00] therefore I build a little team in the background that makes this work. So the only thing basically you need to come [00:02:10] with is your experience and slides that you want to show. And then my team takes care of [00:02:20] everything else. We set up the recordings. We make sure that. Your slides look great. We can, you know, help you with making sure the slides [00:02:30] look really, really good, have a nice branding, all these kinds of different things.

[00:02:34] Alexander: We help with scheduling recordings. We help with scheduling [00:02:40] training sessions with the community. We help with all the Organizational, logistical things we help with. Also marketing [00:02:50] everything so that it is really, really easy for the trainers and of course, on the other hand, also easy for the [00:03:00] community to learn.

[00:03:01] Alexander: Now I know that there’s a lot of different. Online training sources all around. Yeah, it [00:03:10] is so easy just to record, you know, some sessions and whatsoever. Yes, I will also have these pure [00:03:20] online recordings and I want to offer more than that. I want to make sure that people can also directly [00:03:30] interact with the trainers.

[00:03:31] Alexander: So most of the courses will not be pure online self learning, but [00:03:40] will be courses where you can interact with the trainers. And for the trainers so that they actually see [00:03:50] real statisticians, programmers, data scientists, and get feedback from them directly. We can have various [00:04:00] different formats for that.

[00:04:01] Alexander: So one format is, for example, a general Q& A, where everybody that is in the course [00:04:10] can ask any question to the trainer. And these can be quite fun, especially for things where there’s always some new [00:04:20] questions coming up. So the second is, we will have. Live trainings that are then recorded. That is one of my favorite ways [00:04:30] actually to set up trainings We don’t pre record it, but we actually live record it.

[00:04:37] Alexander: That is much more fun and for the people [00:04:40] that Participate in the first course, they also have the ability to directly interact with the trainer. There will [00:04:50] surely be further kind of hybrid things, where there are self learning modules and there are modules that [00:05:00] are trained, either in bigger groups, in smaller groups, or potentially even in additional one to one training.

[00:05:08] Alexander: And that will [00:05:10] make it a really, really good course. rich experience and much better than the usual online training courses. [00:05:20] My experience with these pure self learning courses is not the best. Very often we [00:05:30] purchase these and then we never get to finish them. Yeah, if you look into statistics for online self learning courses, [00:05:40] the completion rate is I think about something like 3 to 5 percent or something like this low.

[00:05:46] Alexander: It’s really, really bad. And so with [00:05:50] this. interactive parts, we can actually make sure that there’s an incentive and that there’s a better learning experience [00:06:00] so that people actually make it to the end. Because like in medicine, the therapy can only work [00:06:10] if it is applied and taken and of course Lessons and learnings can only get into your brain and [00:06:20] into your skill set if you actually complete the trainings.

[00:06:25] Alexander: Of course, we will have a lot of feedback loops so [00:06:30] that we continuously improve these trainings over time.

[00:06:37] Alexander: We will start with [00:06:40] trainings in English, because that is our kind of language, Franca, that is kind of the language that nearly everybody talks, [00:06:50] and we will also allow people So if you rather wanna teach in France, French, or in [00:07:00] Spanish, or in Italian, or in Portuguese, or in Chinese, or whatever, let me know.

[00:07:08] Alexander: And we can make [00:07:10] these things happen. So that We provide the best experience possible. Now, why should you become a [00:07:20] trainer in the Effective Statistician Academy? Well, first, just give back to the community. We all have received so much from [00:07:30] the community. And I think it is so great. To give back. To help others with your knowledge and leverage your existing [00:07:40] trainings that you already have.

[00:07:41] Alexander: Have a bigger impact. Second, make yourself more widely known and create a branding around yourself. [00:07:50] All these promotions that my team is doing for the Effective Statistician Academy, all that will also [00:08:00] shine a light on you as a trainer. Through that, that is the third point, you can also help your organization [00:08:10] become more visible.

[00:08:11] Alexander: If you want to attract more clients, if you want to attract more employees, [00:08:20] then this can be a big part of your employer branding or of your company branding. [00:08:30] Fourth. A teacher always learns. So, if you help others and [00:08:40] train others, you will improve your knowledge, the depth of your knowledge that you talk about, and you will improve [00:08:50] your skills in terms of presentations and things like this.

[00:08:55] Alexander: And that is the last thing next thing, you can become a much [00:09:00] better communicator. Everybody that joins this academy as a trainer will get [00:09:10] additional training in terms of how to communicate well, how to present well, how to make the [00:09:20] training really, really great. And that will not only help you for The actual training in the community, in the academy, but also for [00:09:30] all the other presentations that you will get, for all your future trainings.

[00:09:34] Alexander: And believe me, over a career, you will do a lot of these. [00:09:40] Next point is, you can join. this group of all the trainers and network with each other. And believe [00:09:50] me, networking with such a group of amazing people will definitely help you with your career, with your personal growth, with your career growth, [00:10:00] with making more of What you have with achieving bigger things in your career, [00:10:10] irrespective of where you are in academia, in a CRO, in a sponsor organization, or whether you just lead your own company and you’re a [00:10:20] freelancer.

[00:10:21] Alexander: This will definitely help. Last but not least. And of course, parts of this training will be [00:10:30] free and some parts will not be for free. And so for all the money, I will just split it 50 [00:10:40] 50 with the trainers. That way I want to give back and that way I can ensure that there is good [00:10:50] visibility to the community.

[00:10:53] Alexander: Good services to the trainers, all these kinds of different things. I really love when [00:11:00] everything is for free. Unfortunately, that’s not how the world works. And in order to make something that is [00:11:10] sustainable over time, I think you absolutely need to have Something that is some kind of money involvement, because that makes sure [00:11:20] that there’s bills are paid and that people that work on it can set things up in a professional way.

[00:11:27] Alexander: So if you want to become a trainer, [00:11:30] if you want to share things about technical skills like S Demands, Bayes, non parametrics, [00:11:40] whatsoever, or if you want to share about non technical trainings like how the industry is working, how Pricing is working in the [00:11:50] industry, how you can best work together with senior management, whatsoever.

[00:11:57] Alexander: Everything that helps statisticians, data [00:12:00] scientists, and programmers in being more effective in what they do. Is welcome to this academy. Just send an email [00:12:10] to academy at the effective statistician dot com and then we will work together to make sure that there’s a great training [00:12:20] provided to the people.

[00:12:21] Alexander: We will also have very soon an online kick off for all these new trainers. Because I want all [00:12:30] the trainers to go through this process together. To help each other with kind of different tasks that are coming up. So that we can effectively [00:12:40] help each other, learn from each other and have a great experience.

I want to help the community of statisticians, data scientists, programmers and other quantitative scientists to be more influential, innovative, and effective. I believe that as a community we can help our research, our regulatory and payer systems, and ultimately physicians and patients take better decisions based on better evidence.

I work to achieve a future in which everyone can access the right evidence in the right format at the right time to make sound decisions.

When my kids are sick, I want to have good evidence to discuss with the physician about the different therapy choices.

When my mother is sick, I want her to understand the evidence and being able to understand it.

When I get sick, I want to find evidence that I can trust and that helps me to have meaningful discussions with my healthcare professionals.

I want to live in a world, where the media reports correctly about medical evidence and in which society distinguishes between fake evidence and real evidence.

Let’s work together to achieve this.
