4. Operations Research with SAS Optimization
This course focuses on formulating and solving mathematical optimization models using the OPTMODEL procedure, from inputting data to interpreting output and generating reports. The course covers smooth and non-smooth models with continuous and integer decision variables. Advanced capabilities, such as control flow, multiple models, and network optimization, leverage the power of SAS Viya to solve complicated business problems.
5. Programming with SAS/IML Software
This course teaches you how to use the IML procedure via the programming language. You benefit from this course if you plan to use SAS/IML for manipulating matrices, simulating data, writing custom statistical analyses, or working with R. The programs in this course require SAS/IML 12.3 or later to run.
The self-study e-learning includes:
- Annotatable course notes in PDF format.

6. Discrete-Event Simulation with SAS Simulation Studio
This course is for analysts who need to use discrete-event simulation in order to model complex systems that are difficult or impossible to model using traditional analytical techniques. Discrete-event simulation models dynamic systems whose state changes only when distinct, discrete events occur. The simulation models can then be used to look at various changes to the processes to determine the impacts that those changes might have.
