First you need to learn about statistics from the theoretical side. Then you can start using SAS to apply that knowledge.

Without solid roots in statistics, attempts at using SAS/STAT will mostly fail.

(When the SAS documentation says "Procedure XXX is used for YYYY", and you have no clue what YYYY means, you're hosed anyway)

I don't have roots in statistics, so I leave that to the academic statisticians in the actuaries. I'm just the data engineer.

The first statistics course is free via e-learning, see bottom right hand corner. 

There's also a selection of videos here as well.
