The course aimed to equip participants with the skills necessary for applying probability sampling methods to generate samples for statistical inference. It covered various sampling methods, variance approximation, and the framework of a probability sample survey. Targeted at technical staff involved in survey design and data analysis, the key topics included data collection methods, sample size determination, sample selection methods, and variance estimation.

Ms. Pinky Peña, Chief Statistical Specialist of the Training Division, delivered the closing remarks on behalf of PSRTI Executive Director III, Josefina V. Almeda, PhD, during the closing ceremonies. This course marks the second instance of CTCs on Sampling Design and Estimation conducted for PSA participants.
