EUROMOD on-site training Autumn 2025

  • Past Event
  •   -  
  • JRC-Seville (ES)

The course will be held on 15, 16 and 17 October 2025 in hybrid format: at the premises of JRC-Seville and online (links can be found below, in each of the days).

It will include the following sessions (CEST time zone):

15 October

  • 10:00-13:00 Microsimulation models and introduction to EUROMOD; EUROMOD language; Handling errors
  • 14:30-17:30 Variable types; Defining tax units, constants and income lists

16 October

  • 10:00-13:00 Functions Elig, ArithOp & Allocate
  • 14:30-17:30 Functions BenCalc & SchedCalc 

17 October

  • 10:00-13:00 Simulation of consumption taxes in EUROMOD
  • 14:30-17:30 Function DefOutput; Uprating indices; EUROMOD Connectors 

The course is targeted to new and potential users of EUROMOD. It does not assume any previous knowledge of the model, but a background in the use of microdata and distributional analysis will help to make the most of it. It combines lectures with live demonstrations of the model. Participants will also have the opportunity to carry out a number of hands-on exercises to test and refine their understanding of the model. 

Getting ready for the training

  • You will need to install the most recent version of the EUROMOD software, available here. Users of the European Commission internal network can install EUROMOD installer v3.8.1 directly from the EC store (a brief guide describing the process here).
  • Additionally, we will use the EUROMOD model, a set of xml files that has to be copied to your computer. In particular, we will use model I6.0+++, a specific version created for training purposes. You can download it here. 
  • Follow the instructions here to install software and model.
  • Download the training material that will be used in the course.
