We require some statistical tools to handle the tonnes of data generated each day. Structuring and analyzing the data is the main task, followed by strategic decision making. It can be directly said that the cause and excess of data, led to the efficient generation of data analysis tools like SAS. This course aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to the SAS analytic software for Windows. Students will gain experience using the SAS system for data manipulation, management and analysis. Emphasis will be placed on the skills and techniques necessary for efficient data manipulation, management and analysis. It is designed for students with little to no background with SAS, and an understanding of the basic statistical concepts. This will be an excellent choice for your first SAS introduction course for your data analysis career. SAS Programming Language is defined as the science of data-driven decision making.
