how to get the cert input files

[yuchiaolai930]

Hi, 

I'm doing SAS base practice exam, and can't find the cert.input files. Does anyone know how can I get them?

Before you enter the exam itself, there is a page that describes how to acquire the input files, depending on which platform you are using to write your SAS code. Go back to the start of the eLearning and read the introduction material carefully.

Instructions for Using SAS OnDemand for Academics

1. Download the Data Download for SAS OnDemand for Academics zip file. 
2. Open the zip file and extract it to any location on your computer. The unzip process creates a folder named BaseCert that includes one SAS program: setupBaseCert_oda.sas. 
3. Sign in to your SAS OnDemand for Academics Dashboard and start SAS Studio. 
4. At the top of the Server Files and Folders panel, click New and select Folder. 
5. In the Name box, type cert in lowercase exactly as shown. Click Save. If necessary, expand Files(Home) and verify that the cert folder was created. 
6. Select the cert folder and click Upload. 
7. In the Upload Files window, click Choose Files. Browse to the BaseCert folder on your computer, select setupBaseCert_oda.sas, and click Open. Click Upload. The program is added to the cert folder on the server. 
8. If necessary, expand the cert folder, and then double-click setupBaseCert_oda.sas to open the program in SAS Studio. 
9. Click Run or press F3 to run the program. This program creates all the SAS files and data you need for this course. After the program runs, a list of SAS tables is displayed in the Results tab. 
10. In the Server Files and Folders panel, you should have 4 subfolders in the cert folder: errors, input, output and programs. The  output and programs folders will be used to save programs and results during the practice exam.
