Accelerating SAS Code on the SAS Viya Platform
This course is for SAS programmers who want to learn how to run code on the SAS Viya platform. In the course, you first learn how you can easily run traditional SAS code in SAS Viya like you have in SAS 9. Then you learn how to modernize your SAS code to take advantage of SAS Cloud Analytic Services (CAS) on the platform to boost program performance. CAS is a high-performance in-memory analytic engine that performs massively parallel processing (MPP) on data of any size, working with multiple machines, CPUs, and threads for lightning-fast results. The course focuses on how to access, manage, analyze, and manipulate in-memory tables on the distributed CAS server using traditional SAS code as well as new coding techniques. This course is not intended for beginning SAS software users.

Getting Started with SAS Studio: A Point-and-Click Approach
This introduction to SAS hands-on workshop shows how you can use the menu-driven tasks in SAS Studio to perform common reporting and research tasks. Several statistical procedures are used to analyze data and produce reports. SAS Studio provides a graphical point-and-click interface that helps you exploit the power of SAS. Demonstrations in the presentation use research type data and tasks in illustrating the functionality of SAS.

Please note that this course does not teach statistical concepts, but it does teach how to use some statistical tools in SAS.

Graphing Data Effectively and Avoiding Common Pitfalls
The human mind is geared to look at patterns and attach immediate explanation to the patterns, consciously or subconsciously, and sometimes that conclusion or explanation might not be apt. This course discusses the common fallacies and paradoxes in statistics and data analysis, as well as common pitfalls in data visualization. The course also teaches general guidelines that help you avoid those pitfalls to ensure a fair and accurate representation of facts.
