Actually I think the training for R was done by one Mr. Mimano of datadyne. They also do data collection apps for agric NGOs. He's on this list On Sep 16, 2015 8:46 AM, "Eva Kimathi" <evakimathi@gmail.com> wrote:

They do not as if now. I wouldn't say they do analytics even after forming a department specifically for that. On Sep 16, 2015 8:10 AM, "Eva Kimathi" <evakimathi@gmail.com> wrote:
Thank you all for the advice.
The research team is primarily agriculture based...their analyst insists that Stata is for engineering and he hasn't heard of R.
@Mosoti I will check the Enterprise guide, thank you
@Kennedy do you know if Safcom offer analytics as a service? (I wish)
I'll keep you posted.
Cheers

Any idea who's using R? I know equity had training on this but not sure if they actively use it.
For SAS, get someone from Safcom to advice. On Sep 15, 2015 11:18 PM, "Vincent Mosoti via skunkworks" < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:
