Introduction to NVivo
NVivo is a software tool that helps researchers manage and analyze qualitative data. This type of data includes interviews, survey responses, articles, social media content, and more. In a typical research environment, NVivo is used to:
Organize Data: Researchers can import various types of data into NVivo and keep everything in one place.
Analyze Patterns: The software helps identify themes, trends, and patterns within the data.
Visualize Findings: NVivo provides tools to create charts, maps, and models to visualize the research findings.
By using NVivo, researchers can handle large amounts of qualitative data more efficiently and gain deeper insights into their research topics.
NVivo access in APU

Steps to Access NVivo Institutional License
For lecturer/trainer
Lecturers or trainers who wish to provide their students or participants with access to NVivo must compile a list of users who require the license. This list should be submitted to the license administrator at APU.
Please read the following guide on how to submit the user list: Enroll for NVivo access (bulk)
For students/participants
Your lecturer/trainer should have requested license on behalf of you before the commencement of programme. If the lecturer has not yet requested the license, you should remind your lecturer/trainer to do so using the guideline above.
If your lecturer/trainer requested you to perform the access request yourself as you are the only individual requiring such access, please read this guide to learn how to do so: Enroll for NVivo access (individual)
