Welcome to the Chance Age Webinar Series

September 28, 2022 - September 29, 2022

Chancification Webinars
Welcome to the Chance Age
Dr. Sam L. Savage’s Two-Part Webinar Series on Chancification

(includes ChanceCalc software)

To highlight Dr. Savage’s new book, Chancification: How to Fix the Flaw of Averages (now available in paperback) and the recent technology that it describes, Dr. Savage has developed two new highly interactive webinars. Attendees are encouraged to use video cameras and participate actively.

As with all his presentations, no statistical background is required. However, for those who have had a stats class and as a result are suffering from Post-Traumatic Statistics Disorder (PTSD), these webinars will provide a cure.

 

Webinars

The webinar series includes two sequential 1-hour webinars, Give Chance a Chance and The Probability Power Grid. Attendees will have the option of choosing the time slot for each webinar during registration.

The cost is $300 but we are offering ICEAA members a 5% discount. On the registration page, use the Promo Code, 5ICEAA, and be sure to click apply. The cost also includes::
