Struggling to master demographic projection methods that reflect real-world complexity? This hands-on course guide walks you through population forecast techniques using genuine Algerian and Canadian data — so you learn by doing, not just by reading theory. Workforce forecast, health needs forecast, and school-age population forecast are not abstract exercises here. Each is grounded in solved, step-by-step problems drawn from two contrasting national contexts, giving you the analytical confidence to apply these methods in your own research or professional practice. You will discover how to: • Build accurate population projections using proven demographic techniques • Produce a workforce forecast that reflects realistic labour-market dynamics • Develop a health needs forecast tied directly to projected population structures • Generate a school-age population forecast to support education planning decisions • Use Spectrum (Futures Group) software to run demographic projections on a personal computer • Access, download, and critically compare projections from the United Nations, the Population Reference Bureau, and the U.S. Census Bureau What makes this guide different from a standard demography textbook is the dual-country approach. By working through exercises rooted in both Algerian data and Canadian data, you experience firsthand how the same forecasting framework produces very different policy implications depending on context — a skill gap that most courses simply never close. Whether you are a graduate student preparing for a population studies programme, a public-health analyst building your technical toolkit, or a policy researcher who needs defensible demographic projections fast, this guide meets you where you are and moves you forward. By the final exercise, you will not just understand population forecasting — you will be able to do it.
