Working with dates and times in Stata  

15 September 2026, 11:00 AM CDT (4:00 PM UTC), 1 Hour

Many analyses rely on dates. For example, you might need to calculate the time between two dates, or perhaps you plan to fit a time-series model or perform survival analysis. Before you can perform your final analysis, you’ll want to make sure that your dates are properly stored and ready for use. Dates are often coded differently by different researchers and stored differently across software packages. You might be working with standard dates and times, while your colleague prefers UTC dates and times. How do you proceed with the dataset they hand you? You are working with Stata, but your colleague might hand you a dataset created using a different software. Perhaps your data include daily dates, but you may need to work with monthly dates. How do you proceed?

In this webinar, we will provide solutions to these challenges and more using Stata‘s date and time features. These features allow you to easily convert from one type of date and time to another. Whether you want to work with calendar dates, focus on business dates, compute time between dates, or even use dates in your expressions, you will see how this can be done in Stata. We demonstrate how to build dates and times from components, extract only those portions that are of interest to you, or simply customize them to your liking.

Psychometric meta-analysis in Stata  

14 October 2026, 11:00 AM CDT (4:00 PM UTC), 1 Hour

This webinar introduces meta psycorr, a new command in StataNow for psychometric meta-analysis. Psychometric meta-analysis provides a more rigorous framework than traditional meta-analysis by correcting observed correlations for statistical artifacts—including measurement error, range restriction, artificial dichotomization, and small-study bias. In this webinar, we will introduce the underlying theory and demonstrate a practical Stata workflow, from data preparation to creating corrected forest plots and exploring heterogeneity using Stata’s integrated meta suite.

Financial Statistics in Stata  

10 November 2026, 11:00 AM CST (5:00 PM UTC), 1 Hour

This webinar introduces the new suite of financial commands in StataNow. Whether you are estimating the price of risk or comparing portfolio performance against a benchmark, this session will show you how to conduct rigorous financial analysis entirely within Stata.

In this webinar, we will walk you through practical workflows using real-world financial data. You will learn how to do the following:

  • Determine the drivers of asset returns: Use the new finregress capm command to easily fit Capital Asset Pricing Models (CAPM) and finregress fmb to run Fama–MacBeth regressions.
  • Evaluate portfolio performance: Use the finsummarize command to instantly compute key metrics, including the Sharpe ratio, Treynor index, Beta, and Jensen’s alpha.
  • Manage financial workflows: Use the finreturns command to compute asset-return series and the finportfolio command to generate portfolios.

Introduction to Customizable Tables in Stata  

9 February 2027, 11:00 AM CST (5:00 PM UTC), 1 Hour

This webinar will introduce Stata‘s customizable tables features, including the tabledtable, and etable commands and the collect suite. You will learn how to easily create cross-tabulations and tables of summary statistics using table and dtable, as well as tables of estimation results using etable. You will also see how you can create customized tables after collecting results from any Stata command. This means your table can include summary statistics, results of standard hypothesis tests, regression results, and results of tests and fitted statistics obtained after model fitting. With the results collected from Stata commands, you will learn how to specify a table layout—what belongs on the rows and columns—and how to customize the look of the table. You can modify labels in headers, numerical formats, text alignment, cell shading, border lines, and much more. You will also learn how to export your customized tables to Word®, Excel®, PDF, LaTeX, HTML, Markdown, SMCL, and plain text.
