SAS no longer sells it but a reseller might still have it in stock. (That may have reached the end of it's licensed life, so caveat emptor.)<BR /> <BR /> SAS currently provides SAS free for courses in degree granting programs (SAS On Demand for Academics), but you have to be registered through a school. You might also be able to get a copy of SAS to use through an educational institution, as many of them have high-volume site licenses that make the individual user cost fairly small.<BR /> <BR /> Beyond that, you will have to pay full freight from SAS.<BR /> <BR /> Doc Muhlbaier<BR /> Duke Mon, 29 Nov 2010 00:07:07 GMT Doc_Duke 2010-11-29T00:07:07Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Procedures/SAS-software-for-practising/m-p/40433#M10455 hi All,<BR /> <BR /> Does anyone know if there is any chance to get free learning edition or other limited version of SAS? I would just like to practise, not use for commercial purposes.

Been fortunate enough to have SAS at most places I've worked. <BR /> <BR /> The 30 day trial is probably a good enough time period to practice. <BR /> <BR /> Its been mentioned before that if your work has a license you may be able to install that version at home as well, but unsure what the result of that was. <BR /> <BR /> If you're in between jobs or trying to get certified on your own time it is hard to get access to the software outside of a job.

I'm trying to search for thread re on how and where can I get a copy of this SAS software for learning and practicing as well. And if you have the sites, can you give me the link please?<BR /> Thanks Wed, 20 Apr 2011 16:26:19 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Procedures/SAS-software-for-practising/m-p/40436#M10458 jrock0812 2011-04-20T16:26:19Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Procedures/SAS-software-for-practising/m-p/40437#M10459 Hi Rafal,<BR /> Did you get any copy of SAS software from WPS?
