Advanced Techniques in CGE Modeling with GAMS: Intensive
course at the advanced level. The course will focus on

modeling with imperfect competition and intertemporal
dynamics. This course is only accessible to the EcoMod
alumni, or to those who have sufficient experience in
general equilibrium modeling and in GAMS.
Trade Policy Modeling with GAMS: The course will focus on
dynamic multinational and multisectoral general equilibrium
modeling with imperfect competition applied to

EcoMod courses use a unique, integrated and practical
approach to model building. Participants actually build the
models step-by-step with guidance from instructors: from
small to large scale and from simple to complex structure.
The training is fully practical and provides 'hands-on'
experience through intensive use of exercises on the
computer.
