| Sumario: | The Consumer Expenditure Surveys (CE) program collects expenditures, demographics, and income data from families and households. To address CE-related topics in survey methods research, provide free training in the structure and uses of the CE microdata, and explore possibilities for collaboration, the CE program held its annual Survey Methods Symposium and Microdata User's Workshop from July 12 to 15, 2016. Several economists from the CE program and other U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics offices, along with research experts in a variety of fields, including academia, government, market research, and other private industry areas, gathered together to explore better ways to use the microdata.
