EuroStat Tutorials

EuroStat is the common name of the Statistical Office of the European Communities. This organization gathers and publishes “comparable and harmonized data” on “the European Union, its Member States and its partners.” The EuroStat website offers “Direct access to the latest and most complete statistical information available on the European Union, the EU Member States, the euro-zone and other countries.”

EuroStat's website is large and complex, and offers many different access methods to its data. An introduction and overview for first-time users is available here. We have prepared these additional tutorials to introduce researchers to some of the access methods Eurostat provides. Note that to view the tutorials you must have Adobe Flash Player installed, and javascript enabled in your browser.
