Training offer: FLAMES - Flanders’ training network for methodology and statistics

FLAMES is an inter-university training network rooted in the five Flemish universities: Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Ghent University, Hasselt University, University of Antwerp and KULeuven.

It offers high-quality training in methodology and statistics for doctoral students, early-career researchers and participants beyond academia. The training portfolio is organised into three tracks: Data Science, Quantitative Research Methods and Qualitative Research Methods. Through practical courses, advanced training modules, seminars, a two-week summer school and an annual meeting, FLAMES strengthens research skills, fosters collaboration between universities and promotes interaction between academia, industry and the public sector.
