————————————————————————
SAS Programming Complete is perfect for the beginner but also delves into more intermediate topics. For example, you will learn how to develop a SAS model (predictive model). This will give you experience with SAS and machine learning.
Course Updated in 2021.
If you are using SAS Enterprise Guide, and you want to learn how to code/program instead of using the point and click interface, this course is ideal! If you are interested in SAS Model building, the course has an introduction to the topic.
The first part of the course utilizes the Data step, 2nd part looks at SAS SQL, the third part looks at the Macro Programming/Programs. As an addition, I have added a section on SAS Predictive Modeling using Logistic Regression. Here we will build a SAS Model. In other words, we will build a predictive model (also known as Predictive Analytics) while following critical principles to ensure we get things right.
While the course is for beginners, it is comprehensive in nature and covers some advanced topics. This allows students who have previous experience to get benefits from the course as well. Furthermore, since you get the course for LIFE, you can use it as a resource at any time.
SAS programming continues to be the language of choice for most enterprises/corporations. In 2018, 92% of Fortune 100 companies used SAS. It is the go-to for many industries, including banking/finance, insurance, healthcare, pharmaceutical, and automotive.
My SAS training course was also developed to help you become SAS Certified Specialist: Base Programming certified. I have received numerous private messages from students who have passed the SAS Base exam, or work-related exams or interviews because of this course. I love reading these messages, especially when students tell me that they couldn’t have done it without this course.
The lessons in this course are meant to be taken in order, as each lesson builds up on knowledge, and may mention some important ideas/concepts. If you skip videos, it may appear that some aspects are not being explained. For example, if you skip the import.txt lecture because you only care about importing .csv files, you may miss explanations about certain lines of codes.
Nevertheless, you will learn a lot!
As mentioned, you will learn how to code in the SAS programming language, to help you start a career/gain employment, or move up at your current company. If you’re studying SAS at a post-secondary institution, this course can not only help you with school projects but prepare you for a career after you complete your education. 

Please take a look at each section to see what is covered. You are able to view the titles of all lectures and see a free video preview for some selected lectures.
Learning SAS programming means that you will be able to accomplish the same goal on ANY software that supports SAS language. I personally use WPS. You guys have your own options.

Finally, you have nothing to lose. No risk! You get a 30-day money-back guarantee + the course for life (including any new content added after you enroll)!
Enroll now! Your future looks brighter with SAS Training and SAS Certification.

All Things Data.
I have a passion for anything data, whether it is applying statistical methods to data more generally, or utilizing a data-driven approach in the Healthcare or Finance/Banking industries.
I studied Psychology for 6-years, including 2 years of Graduate school, where I was training to be a Child/School Psychologist. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to experience a blend of course work and clinical work but also recognize some of the problems facing the mental health system and graduate school system. While I am very interested in finding a solution for the latter, this is a long-term goal.
I did ultimately decide to voluntarily leave the Grad program, it was via academics that I fell in love with statistics and statistical software like SPSS/SAS.
Furthermore, it was my Graduate school experience that not only solidified my interest in teaching, it’s where I received a lot of positive feedback on my ability to break down complex topics.
I enjoy receiving messages from students who have passed exams, obtained interviews, or gained employment, from taking one of my courses.
—————————————————————————————Para meus alunos de língua portuguesa …
Sou apaixonado por estatística, ciência de dados, programação orientada a objetos e psicologia / saúde mental. Eu desenvolvi um conhecimento em Programação e Estatística SAS através da minha escolaridade e auto-estudo. Também sou autodidata em programação orientada a objetos.

Eu sou um ex-aluno de graduação em psicologia educacional. Dois anos depois, decidi me retirar voluntariamente. Aprendi que o ambiente acadêmico tradicional e o ambiente clínico não eram o caminho adequado para promover mudanças em larga escala.

Ensinar é uma paixão há muito tempo. Criei meu primeiro curso de vídeo online em 2016 (um curso de Estatística). Foi um projeto de pura paixão. Como resultado de obter ótimos comentários, continuei! Atualmente, ensino os cursos de SAS, estatísticas e psicologia, mas também estou sempre aprendendo. Gosto de receber mensagens de alunos que passaram nos exames, obtiveram entrevistas ou obtiveram emprego ao fazer um de meus cursos.
