About this Subscription



SAS Studio supports SAS 9.4 and later, is included in SAS Viya platform offerings, and can run on a server, on your desktop, or in the cloud. You can access it from a web browser using any device. Learn how to use this intuitive interface to access your programs, data files, and libraries wherever – and whenever – you need them. Data files are stored on the server, and programs are executed remotely on a SAS server. Novice users can use predefined tasks to generate SAS code. No prior exposure to SAS Studio is required, but if you would like to know more, watch this free SAS tutorial,  Getting Started with SAS Studio on SAS Viya and find additional resources here.

Learn how to:
  • Understand the applications on the SAS Viya platform and how each is used in the phases of the SAS Analytics Life Cycle: Data, Discovery, Deployment, and Orchestration.
  • Build SAS Studio flows on the SAS Viya platform to access, prepare, and analyze data.
  • Use SAS Studio as a programming interface to code more efficiently and use the point-and-click tasks and code snippets.
  • Develop custom steps to create a user interface on top of your own code that can be shared, reused, and executed in SAS Studio flows.
  • Learn how to transition SAS Enterprise Guide projects to SAS Studio flows.

      Accelerating SAS® Code on the SAS® Viya® Platform
      SHOW MORE ﹀
      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.

      Statistics You Need to Know for Machine Learning
      SHOW MORE ﹀
      When it comes to using data, there are two main camps, traditional statistics and machine learning, and the two camps complement each other. Statistics remains highly relevant, irrespective of the "bigness" of data. Its role remains what it has always been, but it is even more important now. There is a need to transition from traditional statistical modeling to the machine learning world. This course introduces the statistical background necessary for machine learning using SAS Viya. Knowledge of statistics relevant to machine learning will prepare you to become a data scientist. The course prepares you for future instruction on doing machine learning (including its underlying methodology that has statistical foundations) and enables you to develop a deeper understanding of machine learning models.

      This course is a prerequisite to many of the courses in the data science curriculum. A more advanced treatment of machine learning occurs in the courses Machine Learning Using SAS Viya, Interactive Machine Learning in SAS Viya, SAS Visual Statistics in SAS Viya: Interactive Model Building, and Supervised Machine Learning Procedures Using SAS Viya in SAS Studio.

      For students interested in statistics for inference and explanatory analysis used in scientific and medical research, Statistics 1: Introduction to ANOVA, Regression, and Logistic Regression is an appropriate foundational course.
