Who is the Course for? 🧑‍🎓

This course is intended for anyone with an interest in qualitative analysis and mixed methods research, regardless of their field of activity and their level of prior knowledge :

  • non-governmental and non-profit organization,

  • public and parapublic organizations,

Course Content

The course consists of about forty video capsules, focusing on the practical use of the software and its functions, as well as about thirty text capsules combining explanations and illustrations of the functions, checklists and reviews, advice, etc.

It focuses on the actual and practical use of the software, and will not deal with the different methods of analysis and research as such. However, one of the capsules explores the basics of thematic analysis, which is the most frequently used method with Maxqda. If you'd like to explore this topic further, you'll also find some useful reading suggestions.

An example corpus in English, with various types of documents, is provided in MaxQda. Please also note that this training course covers the "Standard" version of Maxqda, and does not cover Maxqda's advanced statistics module (Maxqda Analytics Pro).

Available 24/7, with no time limit. All videos are subtitled with high quality subtitles.

The course is the most comprehensive online training course for MaxQda to date, and the only bilingual French-English course available. The French version is here.

Testimonials & Reviews ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Here is what our customers and learners from all around the world and from various backgrounds are saying about our training and consultation services!

Amélie offers a complete and progressive training in the use of MAXQDA. Thanks to her training, I was able to gain confidence in my use and anticipate how I would use this very powerful tool through my project. Her course is well constructed and the tutorials very helpful. The added benefit is that you pay ONCE and can come back as often as you like, even months later. It is therefore very useful to refresh your memory at the time of application. Amélie is very pedagogue and available, she is always ready to give advice to the learners. So it's not only a oneshot training that I bought, but a corpus of tutorials, courses and advice. It fits perfectly! MAXQDA becomes even easier with Amélie Dumarcher's training ;)

Julien BOUIX, from Quebec, Canada

Terre des hommes is a Swiss humanitarian organisation working in 34 countries to promote children's rights. We adopted MAXQDA to help improve the quality and efficiency of our studies and evaluations in the field. Amélie supported us in the training of our multinational staff and perfectly adapted her teaching to our needs and constraints. We don't operate in an academic setting, but in a very specific operational one, and Amélie demonstrated great flexibility and an ability to understand the constraints typical of the humanitarian world, taking into account our institutional framework, our procedures and our working methods, understanding our questions and helping us to produce high-quality work within the limits inherent to our context. She provided us with invaluable advice, and with relevant and considerate technical support, which enabled us to initiate the deployment of MAXQDA at organisational level. We really appreciated the pedagogical quality of her content, and thanks to Amélie we gained the confidence and motivation we needed to initiate the deployment of a tool at global level.

Sophie MARESCHAL, from Switzerland

Monitoring & Evaluation Advisor, Terre des hommes

If Amélie has one quality, it is her ability to listen to everyone's needs. So well that when you are part of a group of student researchers with individual needs, she has that comforting adaptability that frees up speech and invites timely accuracy. People who really know how to listen are so rare ... For example, when it comes to the use of the MAXQDA tool (of which she has a very operational knowledge), there is not a single piece of advice that is the same as another, for she takes into consideration the methodological design of each participant. You can thus take full advantage of the precise answers given to your own needs as well as those of others. And finally, Amélie knows how to be available with a great reactivity. And for a PhD student who is always in a hurry, this is a real godsend!
[Review of an online group training and of individual tutoring sessions]

Thierry CURIALE, from France

I am a working adult and writing my PhD thesis simultaneously. I therefore have very limited time in my daily life to dedicate to my research. Amélie Dumarcher made it possible for me to gain time and grasp the many useful features in MAXQDA through her very comprehensive course titled The Complete MAXQDA 2022 Course. The course is not only affordable, but it is very hands on enabling the learner to practice during the course. Amélie has also offered me email tutoring about MAXQDA. She addressed my specific needs clearly with screenshots helping me gain more understanding on how to use MAXQDA. I would strongly recommend her to anyone struggling with MAXQDA. Most especially, researchers who are juggling between work, family and research would find her customized tutoring style very useful.

Sam, from Tokyo, Japan

Amélie's course is comprehensive and accessible even if you have never used MAXQDA before. We can also follow our progress through the self-evaluations and be independent at the end of the training. Her professionalism and availability are assets that served me well throughout the training. I highly recommend her course!"

Koukiyoani KOUTIANGBA, from France

I am very satisfied with the MAXQDA training offered by Ms. Dumarcher. This training is clear, well designed and it's easy to go back to some functionalities and lessons, thanks to the training plan, when we work with the software and are in the middle of an analysis. The variety of training tools (video, pdf, web page) is also very effective. I would recommend this training to my colleagues!"
[Review of the online course, French version]

Marie-Pierre LABRIE, from Quebec, Canada

The course offered by Amélie allows a rapid and efficient understanding of Maxqda. Although the software is intuitive, the training provides you with knowledge of specific tools that add real value to the analysis of data and the presentation of results. Following the training allows you to optimise the use of Maxqda and its potential. Available and easily contacted, Amélie answers questions quickly and with great attention."

Romy VAN NOPPEN, from Belgium

I enrolled in the full programme and I am very satisfied with the MAXQDA qualitative analysis software training. The training plan is complete, the lessons are clear, very well structured and easy to understand. After having followed this training, I am able to use MAXQDA to analyze research results in the field of health and higher education. I highly recommend Ms. Dumarcher as a French speaking instructor of this software.
[Review of the online course, French version]

Dora RODRIGUEZ, from France

The MAXQDA training offered by Ms Dumarcher is very comprehensive and well structured. The video clips give a good overview of the many tools available in the software and are supported by valuable advice. Other materials (summaries, PDF files) help to reinforce understanding and occasional quizzes ensure that the essential elements have been retained. Moreover, it is possible to return to any part of the course at any time even after completing the course. I highly recommend this course, whether you are a novice user or already somewhat familiar with the program.
