There is a lot to unpack in this course, and at times I fear my memory might let it slip. It would be nice, if there were exercises, which combined skills learned in previous weeks.

This opened my perspective as to how data analytics can really shape the world. This program equipped me not just with more advanced technical skills, but also, with brand new eyes for data validation. SAS makes it looks so appealing to crunch numbers, which just goes to prove how sophisticated the software is.

My personal opinion is that SAS institute must understand that they need to make such courses affordable for individuals to practice and experiment. I for one cannot afford, as an individual, to pay thousands of euros for SAS courses and these days neither can companies afford to train their employees because of the huge costs involved. In any case I am so happy that SAS has decided to use the Coursera platform and I personally found this course very well structured in the sense that the flow of topics was easy to follow as one chapter complemented the other. It has done a very good job of helping me understand the basics so far.

Great presentation of complex material; exercises and quizzes really help with understanding and applying concepts.

Level 2 of great introduction to SAS. The course offers a lot of interactive coding experience with SAS Studio platform through many activities and code based quizes. It leads from easier to more complicated examples, starting from scripts missing single statements, ending on code to be written from scratch to achieve a specific result. Hard to imagine better way to design such a course. Great learning experience.

A very useful course if you’re interested in SAS programming. The platform is also easy to use, it’s not necessary to have SAS installed on your laptop in order to take this class.
Eugene L –
Very comprehensive course that is broken down into simple steps which are easy to follow. Admins provide helpful answers to questions.
Hannah R –
Great second part of the 3 part SAS course. TIP: Print the syntax notes at the end of each week. They will help you take notes and keep track of what you are learning.
Dagoberto R –
Great class! Definitely would recommend if one does not know how to manipulate data in SAS
PATRICK M –
Whoa. It was an incredible course and covered almost everything one will ever need to succeed as a SAS analyst. Stacy did an incredible job in her presentation and explaining everything through hands on. Condensing it in only 7 weeks seems a bit much though

very professional, with good examples, the only thing it didn’t have was MACROS. Other than that it’s a perfect course
Mile D –
This course was clearly structured and with the help of the exercises I gained a solid understanding of the programming language. I’m sure I’ll be able to solve some of the work challenges more elegantly next time. Thank you very much!

very detailed ad interesting content, help me to understand SAS programming better and learn more programming skills.

Amazing. But the Functions module is too lengthy. It’d be better if that module can be split into two.
