*I found SPSS program very interesting and easy to use. I haven't used it before, but I consider it

very useful for data analysis.

*I've refreshed my knowledge on health economics and SPSS applicative software.

*The most important was laboratory course, because I learned things I did not know before.

*I learn more about SPSS and it was very, very interesting. Also, prof. John apostrof to us very

good information about patient safety and competetive analysis. Prof. Petros was also perfect and

interesting

*All topics were equally interesting, broadening existing knowledge and helping me to understand

the new issues in this area

*The most important thing I learned was about current health statistics and hot issues in health

area in the world. We've heard many interesting examples, and health was nicely associated with

other areas, making it closer to the participants.

hard copies of medical records and cost - benefit analysis of IT systems in healthcare systems.

Besides this, it was very valuable to learn on new methodologies of measuring and estimating costs

economics and IT, my opinion is that SPSS system is very useful and could expand my current

knowledge, and it could expend statistic in health system.

Q11. What did you like most in the training?

*Everything was interesting, lecturers were good and approachable.

*I liked Dr. Petros and Dr. Parisis approach and assistance. The whole course was interesting and

useful.

*I liked both theoretical parts with good points Mantas and practical SPSS work in lab.

*SPSS applications

*SPSS training was the most interesting and we learn much about contribution of SPSS system in

health organization. It was very interactive and significant to me

*I had liked everything, because it had a lot of practical information which would contribute in my

further professional development.

*Practical part in SPSS

*Practical part and usage of IT program for analysis

*The SPSS system for statistics date in health system.

*The exercise about SPSS application.

Q12. Do you have any suggestions on how to improve the training next time?

In the practical part of the presentations, the OECD database was introduced regarding the health economics themes. The participants interacted individually with the healthcare data of different countries to understand the relations and differences. The approach of data comparison facilitated the understanding of the enormous research potential of Health Economics.

Overall: All courses taught in an interactive way allowing the trainees to interact with the teachers. There was an exemplary high level of interest of the trainees in all aspects of the fields covered in relation to the overall theme of Health Economics independent of the background of each participant. Irrespective of the very intensive teaching and demanding content the participants reached a high level of interaction and awareness of the field of Health Economics The overall conclusion is that both teachers and participants enjoyed the interaction and had a very fruitful teaching experience. The teaching material was available at the Moodle platform on time and that was well accepted by the participants. Finally, this theme was accompanied with hands on experience of laboratory exercises and that was also well accepted and endorsed as a very good approach in teaching in demanding themes such as Health Economics .
