Free online SAS Base Programming Bootcamp July 23 & 24, 9am-5pm - limited seating so sign up soon!

Many job postings directed at business graduates include SAS programming as a preferred qualification.  SAS will be providing a free online SAS Base Programming bootcamp (July 23 and 24, 2021, online 9am-5pm each day), taught by our alumni at SAS, Kathy Kiraly and Brittany Coleman. These bootcamps usually cost between $1,200 to $2,600 for those in industry.  It is free for our students! There is a limit of 20 participants for this event, so sign up soon, if you are interested in learning SAS Base Programming.

 

Concepts covered in this bootcamp will help students interested in becoming credentialed as a SAS Certified Specialist: Base Programming Using SAS 9.4 and/or a SAS Certified Associate: Programming Fundamentals Using SAS 9.4.  For those who want to sit for either of these SAS Base Programming credentialing exams, SAS currently provides our students with a special discount code ($75 versus $120-$250 online exam fees) to take the exam online through PearsonVue.

 

Students should complete the free e-learning SAS Programming 1: Essentials prior to this Live Web SAS Programming 2 course. They can find the course in the SAS Academic Hub: https://www.sas.com/en_us/learn/academic-programs/students.html (If they have not already registered for a free SAS Academic Hub student account, they should do so first with the ECU.EDU email.).  Then, from the Menu, choose Learning>Training>e-Learning to find a list of free e-learning courses, including SAS Programming 1.

 

The free SAS Academic Hub is different than the SAS Learning Subscription you see advertised on their website.  SAS is promoting a SAS Learning Subscription (Free 30 days) on the Academic Hub. I’d recommend holding off on signing up for that 30-day free subscription – the training material you need for this bootcamp is located on the Academic Hub, as I noted earlier.  Also, you can only download free training from that SAS Learning Subscription for 30 days – so you want to be well-versed on what is already free on the academic hub and what your learning goals are – and you will have a better idea after taking a few data analytic classes.
