The Conference on Statistical Practice (CSP) will take place in Sacramento, California, February 20–22 and provide opportunities for attendees to further their career development and strengthen relationships in the statistical community.

With its focus on the application of statistics to solve real-world problems, CSP brings together hundreds of statisticians, data analysts, researchers, and scientists each year. Sessions focus on the following four key themes, which are relevant to those working in the application of statistics and data science in their daily work:

• Theme 1: Communication, Collaboration, and Career Development
• Theme 2: Data Modeling and Analysis
• Theme 3: Data Science and Big Data
• Theme 4: Software, Programming, and Data Visualization

This year’s CSP will again host a free virtual Career Service. This service provides a platform that connects attendees and statistical employers. If you are seeking to start or further your career in statistics or data science, post your profile and résumé, search positions, and contact employers of interest. Employers will arrange interviews directly. Learn more on the CSP website.

The close-knit atmosphere of CSP is ideal for fostering a comfortable learning and networking environment. The goal of the conference is to provide participants with opportunities to learn new statistical methodologies and best practices in statistical analysis, design, consulting, and statistical programming.
