About this Subscription

This learning subscription is for business analysts, statisticians, researchers, econometricians, and epidemiologists using SAS/STAT software in a variety of fields, including public health, pharmaceuticals, and medicine. SAS/STAT goes through rigorous software testing and quality assurance programs so that you can be confident that the code you produce is documented and verified to meet corporate and governmental compliance requirements. These biostatistics courses cover how to evaluate various statistical methods in order to apply the best one to answer your research questions.

Learn how to:

  • Calculate summary statistics, fit various regression methods, and interpret results.
  • Establish causal inferences using methods like two-stage modeling, interrupted time series, regression discontinuity, and propensity score matching.
  • Analyze the number of occurrences of an event or the rate of occurrence as a function of some predictor variable.
  • Use various time-to-event survival analysis methods and their practical implementation.
  • Analyze linear mixed models using the MIXED procedure.
  • Choose the most appropriate statistical method to answer your research questions.

    • Before taking these courses, it is recommended that you take the SAS Programming 1: Essentials and Statistics 1: Introduction to ANOVA, Regression, and Logistic Regression courses, which are available in instructor-led or free online e-learning formats. The Statistics 2: ANOVA and Regression course or equivalent knowledge is also helpful.
