This is the first of two training courses (Basic level) that will introduce those international guidelines on census methodologies, concepts and definitions that are necessary for collecting reliable statistics on population and housing. The programme also aims to assist census managers and subject experts in planning, designing and management of census operations and inform them about alternative and more innovative approaches in conducting censuses.

The main goal of these two online training courses, devised by the United Nations Statistics Division as part of the 2020 World Population and Housing Census Program, is to assist National Statistical Offices (NSOs) in the training of their staff working towards the successful completion of national census operations based on internationally agreed standards and recommendations.
