Applied Economics, Policy, and Financial Modelling Greece

Macro-Econometric Modeling and Forecasting Using EViews Course

In a world where economies shift overnight, might you still be relying on traditional forecasting methods or intuition? Do your models effectively assist decision-makers in taking action, or do they remain merely numbers in a report, lacking real-world impact?

Today’s economists, analysts, and policy advisors face rising expectations: not just to explain the past, but to forecast the future with clarity, confidence, and rigor. This training equips you with the essential econometric and forecasting skills to meet that challenge, leveraging the global standard tool, EViews, to move beyond routine analysis and into deep, strategic insights.

This course is your gateway to becoming a truly impactful forecaster. You won’t just learn which buttons to click or which formulas to run. You’ll learn how to think like a modeler, build robust macroeconomic models, test your assumptions, and communicate findings that drive high-level decisions. Whether you’re working in government, NGOs, finance, or research, this is the toolkit for those ready to elevate their modeling game.

About the Course

Economic forecasting is no longer about static predictions; it’s about managing complexity, uncertainty, and rapid change. Decision-makers today need analysts who can handle multi-dimensional data, anticipate policy impacts, and deliver scenarios that are both technically sound and practically useful.

This course dives deep into the practical tools of macro-econometric modeling and forecasting, using EViews software to bring concepts to life. You’ll learn the full journey: preparing real-world data, selecting and building models, diagnosing issues, generating meaningful forecasts, and presenting your insights with authority. But more importantly, you’ll connect technical outputs to the bigger strategic picture so your work informs policy, business planning, and investment strategies, not just academic exercises.

You will tackle time-series models, VARs, cointegration analysis, panel data methods, and more, always with a hands-on, applied approach. This course is not just about theory or syntax; it’s about helping you become the trusted analyst your organization turns to when the stakes are high.
