Basics of Using the Microdata Access Tool in data.census.gov

These participatory classes walk you through examples of creating tables in the Microdata Access Tool (MDAT) within data.census.gov. Microdata Access on data.census.gov/mdat allows you to create custom tables that are not available in the pre-made tables on data.census.gov, without having to use your own statistical software or special programming.

Time is allotted throughout the training for questions, and participation is strongly encouraged. Using two monitors is recommended for this class, if available.

To ensure that we can maximize the number of attendees, we ask that you only register for a single session. If you need to register for more than one session of the same workshop for any reason, please email us at census.data@census.gov to request this.

  • Please click sessions below to register.
  • Registration is required to attend these workshops. Attendance is limited to 50 participants per session.

***When registering, if you receive a message that you are waitlisted, please sign up for later class.  We are trying to move classes to Waitlist as they fill, but sometimes there is a lag in that update.
