SAS Enterprise Guide: ANOVA, Regression, and Logistic Regression

Duration: 3 days

This course is designed for SAS Enterprise Guide users who want to perform statistical analyses.

Learn how to

 generate descriptive statistics and explore data with graphs


 perform analysis of variance
 perform linear regression and assess the assumptions
 use diagnostic statistics to identify potential outliers in multiple regression
 use chi-square statistics to detect associations among categorical variables
 fit a multiple logistic regression model.

Who should attend: Statisticians and business analysts who want to use a point-and-click interface to
SAS

Prerequisites
Before attending this course, you should

 have completed an undergraduate course in statistics covering p-values,


hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, and regression
 be able to perform analyses and create data sets with SAS Enterprise Guide
software. You can gain this experience by completing the SAS Enterprise Guide
1: Querying and Reporting course.

Applied Analytics Using SAS Enterprise Miner


Duration: 3 Days

This course covers the skills that are required to assemble analysis flow diagrams using
the rich tool set of SAS Enterprise Miner for both pattern discovery (segmentation,
association, and sequence analyses) and predictive modeling (decision tree,
regression, and neural network models).

Learn how to

 define a SAS Enterprise Miner project and explore data graphically


 modify data for better analysis results
 build and understand predictive models such as decision trees and regression
models
 compare and explain complex models
 generate and use score code
 apply association and sequence discovery to transaction data.

Who should attend: Data analysts, qualitative experts, and others who want an
introduction to SAS Enterprise Miner

Prerequisites
Before attending this course, you should be acquainted with Microsoft Windows and
Windows software. In addition, you should have at least an introductory-level familiarity
with basic statistics and regression modeling. Previous SAS software experience is
helpful but not required.
Software Addressed
This course addresses SAS Enterprise Miner software.
