Course Description

Welcome to the course "SAS Macro Programming - Advanced Programming for Beginners". Macro facility is an important feature of SAS Language. This course will help the novice SAS user bridge the gap between beginner and advanced programmer.

My goal is that at the end of the course, you will not only know and understand Macro Language, but also know to implement it in your programs. Therefore this course includes a lot of assignments. This will allow you to practice and to gain experience. I put a strong emphasis on practice.

All the code programmed during the course can be downloaded. However, i recommend and suggest you to write the code independently, so you can understand it in depth

I divided the course into four sections. First section is Introduction. It includes lectures such as Installation & Familiarity with SAS University Edition and Introduction to SAS Macro. As you will see, SAS Macro consist of two basic elements : macro variables and macros. So in the second section, we will learn macro variables and n the third section we will learn macros. The last section is Conclusions.

If you have any questions about the material, suggestions or ideas how to improve the course, i would be very happy to hear them. Guys, don't hesitate to ask the questions. I will answer any of them.

I sincerely hope you will enjoy the course, and i promise that your programming level will increase significantly!

It was my company has recently implemented a SAS environment and am looking forward to learning more about SAS programming and I enjoyed the course

By Irma Wiriadinata on 10/30/2023

Beginning of course was blurry, so content was hard to see. The first three lessons were simply showing you how to download and install the university software version, so if you already have SAS Studio or EG installed then you can skip to Lesson 4. Concepts start out with basic macro programming language and then get progressively harder. A lot of it was review for me, but the last few lessons were informative, especially the use of the %sysfunc and %eval.

It was a great learning experience. Totally loved your way of explaining the things. Now I'm much confident on SAS Macro part. Thanks a lot and keep providing such valuable contents for Udemy community.

several assignments were missing answer code, and the instructor could do a better job of explaining how to functionally use the info

By Laura Valencia on 5/19/2023

Very insightful and interesting course. Sometimes the voice distract me with the rythmus. The assignments were too difficult to solve.

By Sonja Müller on 4/20/2023

War zwar auf Englisch, aber durch die Untertitle trotzdem verständlich (Aussprache alleine hätte manchmal für Verwirrung gesorgt). Beispiele super einfach und verständlich. Besonders gut, dass man sich nicht erst irgendwelche Datasets herunterladen musste, sondern auf die bestehenden zurückgegriffen wurde - somit kann man es für sich jederzeit wiederholen.

I thought the course was easy to follow along and at a decent pace. the materials covered were at the appropriate skill level as advertised. only issue is was the change from SAS University to sas ondemand for academics.

By ASHISH VIJAY on 4/21/2020

Overall content was good but presentation can be improved like font size of codes is too small it has to big enough to read it properly

By Anonymized User on 9/22/2019

Pros: Instructor is competent and explains everything in a clear way. He answers additional questions. This course was what I was looking for, excellent introduction. Cons: I regret the instructor doesn't zoom the screen when writing the code.

By Christopher on 10/29/2018

I do use SAS quite a lot on my daily business. These course gave me i broader understanding of SAS Macro functions. Before i started i already programmed macros, but still this cource was helpfull to me
