Software Training for Data Analysts, Computer Programmers and Statisticians

This SAS course series at Metro College of Technology focuses on updating skills for data analysts who use Statistical Analysis System (SAS) Software as a major tool in their daily data analysis. Students will receive comprehensive SAS training in order to obtain a SAS certification.

 

SAS is a software program which provides reliable and easy to use technology that transforms data into enriched, cleansed and trustworthy information, including the functionalities of data warehouse, large-scale data processing, data excavation, statistical analysis, report and graph generation, and web page connection. Ninety percent of Fortune 500 organizations are SAS users.

 

SAS has a unique programming step and language. One of the dynamic features of SAS is its programming language, easy to learn and has pertinent syntax. By using the combination of DATA STEP and PROC STEP syntax, SAS solves the problem of complex data retrieving, processing, analysis, expression and connection. SAS programming language is unlike other computer language; it will never be out of date or obsolete. The reason for this is that SAS can change its underlying language along with the computer’s languages while maintaining a consistent user interface. Therefore, SAS programming training will increase your experience without changing your knowledge in computer language.
