Hi,

I am new to SAS, looking to complete my base programmer certification soon. I am just wondering how much, if any, SQL is needed to be very strong with SAS?

Thanks

Quite a lot of "free" information available at the SAS support http://support.sas.com/ website.

As data is often held in data bases having sound SQL skills is a good idea also when using SAS.

To pass the SAS advanced programmer cert SQL knowledge is a must.

0% SQL is needed for the Base Certification Exam. Know your DATA step really well though. 🙂
