The PSRTI showcases its facilities and equipment for a more conducive and participant-friendly research and training activities. Since transferring to its new office address in Timog Avenue, Quezon City, the PSRTI has been receiving favorable feedback for its much-improved research and training rooms.

Notable among these improvements is the four (4) training rooms that can accommodate participants from a minimum number of twenty (20) to a maximum of forty (40) and 2 meeting rooms that can fit around ten (10) to twenty (20) persons. All rooms are equipped with the latest audio-visual equipment. In addition, guests are welcome in the library and wellness area where they can spend time during breaks in their training sessions or waiting to be attended to by any PSRTI staff.

Newly-acquired computers installed with the statistical and other software needed for the conduct of training and research activities are available on a ratio of one participant-one computer.

Internet connectivity is also provided for those internet-based trainings. As in the past, PSRTI training courses and research projects are handled by statisticians who are considered experts in their fields.
