Description
A comprehensive, simple and visual guide to Data Analysis using SAS Programming, this course is simplified into the 4 main areas: Data Preparation, Data Structuring, Data Visualization and Optimizing Code using powerful SAS MacrosThis course is for absolute beginners as well as advanced users who wish to learn SAS ProgrammingDelivered in a highly visual style, you will experience a unique and immersive method of the lecturesEquips you with the cutting-edge tool used in many industries, primarily in Pharma, Finance and Insurance areasSimplified to just 4 main areas, this course is an accelerated path to learning SAS programmingA guide to the following SAS certification exams: SAS Certified Associate: Programming Fundamentals Using SAS 9.4 (Exam ID: A00-215)SAS Certified Specialist: Base Programming Using SAS 9.4 (Exam ID: A00-231)SAS Certified Professional: Advanced Programming Using SAS 9.4 SAS Certified Clinical Trials Programmer Using SAS®9Super easy to to start using SAS with no installation on your computer necessary. All you need is a web browser and a good internet connection. This course uses the latest SAS Studio offered through SAS OnDemand and is completely Free to use!12+ hours of knowledge-packed lectures, 100+ videos, 65 Quiz questions and 2 Practice Tests, followed by 2 practical and hands-on guided exercises and projectsDownload the SAS Programming Resource Guide eBook (100+ pages) as accompanying slides and notes. Use it for quick reference to the lectures, make your own notes on top of this, or use them as presentation slides wherever you want! Earn a Certificate- When you finish listening to all videos, assignments, quizzes and practice exams, you'll earn a Certificate that you can share with prospective employers and your professional network. COURSE SECTIONS DATA PREPARATION will teach you how to import data from multiple sources, create new variables, write SAS functions, and understand what goes on behind the scenes in SAS datasetsDATA STRUCTURING will make you leap into transforming data to a new level by merging and joining multiple datasets together, or turning them upside-down (sorting), and side-ways (transposing)DATA VISUALIZATION will propel you further into the world of analytics and obtaining insightful inferences from what is inside your dataOPTIMIZING CODE will take into the world of macro programming that teaches you how to write your code professionally and elegantlyAt the end of each section, you will try out most concepts discussed in that section through coding exercises and guided assignments. Don't worry if you make mistakes in the assignments, these are guided assignments where I hand-hold you showing all the steps to get them correctly done. At the end of the course, there are 3 practical projects that are based on concepts from all 4 sections of the course. If you wish to further hone your SAS programming skills learnt in this course and apply it on a practical real-life example, I recommend you take my other course on Clinical SAS Programming. If the clinical portion doesn't interest you, can you skip straight to the hands-on programming lectures (Section 3 onward) where you will begin working with a sample (clinical) data in an Excel sheet, which you will import into SAS, derive all necessary variables as in the mock shell specifications through various procs and functions, and finally generate a clinical study report. All this will be done using guided SAS Programming steps with detailed explanations at every step of programming.
