Hey @rvikram - unfortunately, we do not offer a certification series for the Clinical Trials Programming Professional credential. You can find more details about this certification on the SAS Certified Professional: Clinical Trials Programming Using SAS 9.4 site - but it looks like your Base Programming Specialist certification, Advanced Programming Professional certification, and previous experience are prerequisites, which is great news! The courses you may not have taken that are included on the exam are SAS Report Writing 1: Essentials and Statistics 1: Introduction to ANOVA, Regression, and Logistic Regression.
Hi everyone! As a reminder, we are not meeting today; our last session of the series will be Tuesday, April 30th from 4:30-6pm ET. Best of luck attempting the practice exam, and as always, post any questions you have in this thread!
