Advanced Analytics Professional - recommended order to complete courses?

GlasGeezer — Sun, 01 Nov 2020 05:05:48 GMT

Hello

I have subscribed to the Advanced Analytics Professional course, part of the SAS Academy of Data Sciences, which consists of 9 courses. Is there a recommended order in which to complete these courses, or is it okay to complete them in any order?

Thanks

Hi:
When we teach the courses, we teach them in the order they appear inside each module. So first, since so many of the other courses use Enterprise Miner, we recommend that you do the work in the first Predictive Modeling module, most specifically, the Applied Analytics using SAS Enterprise Miner course. If you already know how to use SAS Enterprise Miner, then you could skip this course. If you're not familiar with Enterprise Miner, then I'd recommend that you do this course first.

Next, is the Advanced Predictive Modeling module, of 4 courses. We would recommend that you work on the courses working from left to right, in the order in which the courses appear. That's the order in which we teach the courses. Start with Welcome, then Predictive Modeling using Logistic Regression, Next, Advanced Predictive Modeling, followed by the Data Mining course, the Open Source course and the Case Studies. However, within the module, you can take the classes as you wish. Here's the order in which the courses appear:

Finally, there is the Text Analytics and Time series module, of 4 courses. Again, we would recommend that you work on the courses working from left to right in the order in which the courses appear. That's the order in which we teach the courses. Here's the way the courses appear in the last module in the package:

Of course, depending on your background in SAS with SAS programming or using Enterprise Miner or SAS/ETS, you may skip over or just skim certain courses. I think it's a good idea of at least watch the videos in a course, even if you've taken it before, just to prepare yourself for the certification graded exam.

Hope this helps,
Cynthia
