Since its formation in 1993, the International Association for Statistical Education, IASE, has become a very active international organisation which aims to advance statistical education at all levels, from primary school through training of professionals as well as to the general, public. From 1949 the Committee on Statistical Education within the International Statistical Institute, ISI, promoted the university training of Statisticians at an international level while in developing countries the ISI concerned itself with the education of official statisticians. From the mid 1970's the ISI began to pay more attention to the teaching of statistics at all levels. Since the IASE became a section of the ISI in 1993 it has been responsible for the organisation of all statistical education activities run by the ISI. These include a research group, a range of international meetings, regular publications and a comprehensive website.
The CAUSE Research Group is supported in part by a member initiative grant from the American Statistical Association’s Section on Statistics and Data Science Education
