From biomedical, public health, and educational research, to studies in the behavioral, computational, and social sciences, effective qualitative data analysis plays a critical role. For this reason, we have created the Qualitative Data Analysis Program labs at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the University of Pittsburgh. Accurate and reliable coding using computers is central to the qualitative research process. For new and experienced content analysis researchers, learning advanced project management skills adds hours of struggle in trial-and-error sessions. Experienced QDAP coders and project managers deliver the large-scale, value-added annotated data you need in a timely and expert manner.
