Hi:
The Big Data Professional credential is Level 1 of the SAS Academy for Data Science certification. Level 2 of the SAS Academy for Data Science is the Advanced Analytic Professional credential. To earn the Data Scientist credential, you have to take and pass 5 exams.

The SAS Academy for Data Science program is composed of a total of 18 classes split between these 2 levels:
--SAS Certified Big Data Professional Level 1 is composed of 9 classes and 2 modules
------Big Data Professional Module 1 has 5 classes which prepare you for the Big Data Preparation, Statistics, and Visual Exploration certification exam
------Big Data Professional Module 2 has 4 classes which prepare you for the Big Data Programming and Loading certification exam

After you pass these 2 exams, you will earn the Big Data Professional certification credential.

--SAS Certified Advanced Analytics Professional Level 2 is composed of 9 classes and 3 modules
------Advanced Analytics Professional Module 3 has 1 class which prepares you for the Predictive Modeling certification exam
------Advanced Analytics Professional Module 4 has 4 classes which prepare you for the Advanced Predictive Modeling certification exam
------Advanced Analytics Professional Module 5 has 4 classes which prepare you for the Text Analytics, Time Series, Experimentation, and Optimization certification exam

After you pass these 3 exams, you will earn the Advanced Analytics Professional certification credential. When you have passed the 5th exam, you are automatically awarded the Data Scientist credential. In total, you actually earn 4 credentials because when you pass the Predictive Modeling exam, you earn the Predictive Modeling using SAS Enterprise Miner credential.

So you see, there's not just 1 "book" or 1 "course" or 1 "syllabus" that can be provided to answer your question.

The Big Data Professional exam #1 is based on the 5 classes that prepare you for that exam. The Big Data Professional exam #2 is based on the 4 classes that prepare you for the second exam.

There's not a lot of point in just taking the second exam if you don't plan to take the first exam too and earn the Big Data Professional credential.

For information about how to study for the 9 classes and what is on the 2 exams, you wold want to review the certification web site for the Big Data Professional credential and the content guides:

Bg Data Exam 2:

The classes that prepare you for each of the exams are listed on the above web pages.

Big Data Exam 2:

Hope this clarifies that the Big Data subject material to study for the 2 Big Data Professional exams is a set of 9 classes.

Dear Cynthia,

Thank you for providing all these information. Actually the thing is this Big Data course is very very expensive. I was looking for other alternative to study this.

Regards,
Ajay
