Foundations of Demographic Analysis for Educational Planning

This course equips trainees with the core skills for demographic analysis in educational planning. It combines practical training in statistical tools and demographic measurement (fertility, mortality, migration) with theoretical insights into the social determinants of population change. The focus is on applying this knowledge to foundational techniques for school population projections and simulation, linking demographic trends directly to educational policy and planning.
