Do you analyze or model time-dependent data?


CANdiensten is excited to announce the first course on (Financial) 
Time Series Analysis with S-PLUS & S+FinMetrics in Europe.

Amsterdam
June 21-23


*Who should attend?*
While this course is aimed primarily at the wide audience of 
individuals who work, do research or study in the areas of 
quantitative finance and financial econometrics, the content is 
appropriate for anyone who analyzes or models time-dependent data.

The training provides an overview of time series analysis using 
S-PLUS and S+FinMetrics.  We use the classic technique of least 
squares and maximum likelihood to review modeling methodology. We 
introduce systems-theory concepts, traditionally used for modeling 
dynamic stochastic systems, as a framework for presenting 
time-series models. Within this framework, we present time-series 
models as described in the book Modelling Financial Time Series 
with S-PLUS by Eric Zivot and Jiahui Wang. (A copy of the book will 
be given to course participants.) -> did ook dus (..) 

The methods presented are general, but examples and exercises are 
drawn from financial time series modeling. Thus, practitioners in 
the finance industry who already use S-PLUS and want to explore 
more advanced financial application of advanced S-PLUS analytics 
will find this class useful. It is also appropriate for financial 
analysts who may not be familiar with S-PLUS but who desire an 
integrated and open statistical modeling and programming 
environment for the analysis of financial data.
