Hi,
Welcome to SAS. Consider looking at the SAS Analytics U forum.

It's a bit messy but there's some good information in there, look for posts by SAS staff.

You can download the software for free here, for learning.

SAS Training (free) - Statistics E-Course is online and free (bottom right hand corner)

If you have questions, feel free to post back here.

A good way to practice is also to answer questions here 🙂

Enjoy your learning!

I would also suggest creating data sets identical to problems you have worked and attempt to duplicate any results you had preiviously.
