SAS Certification Most importantly, we offer two SAS (Statistical Analysis System) Courses. After taking either course, the student has the option of taking the SAS certification exam, for either SAS Base Programming or SAS Advanced Programming. Indeed, a recent student took our Advanced SAS class and passed the certification exam. SAS has become, in the last two years, very widely employed in business and in scholarship for research purposes; the pharmaceutical industry, as well as many of the Fortune 500 companies, have found it an especially effective method for research. KSI’s SAS program will help participants from a wide range of professions obtain valuable skills and the credentials needed to get promoted or find better jobs. We offer two courses: SAS Base Programming (MA 377): This course offers an accessible introduction to the language. Attendees become familiar with the basic concepts and techniques of SAS programming in either the SAS or SAS Enterprise Guide programming workspace. This includes creating data, modifying and combining data sets, summarizing and presenting data and debugging SAS programs. Certification Exam: After taking the SAS Base Programming course, students are encouraged to take the SAS Certified Base Programmer credential for SAS 9 exam. SAS Advanced Programming (MA 379): For students who complete the introductory course and want to learn more, or those who already have programming and statistics knowledge, the Advanced SAS class takes a practical, case-study approach and shows students how to apply their knowledge. The SAS Advanced Programming course will introduce students to inferential statistics, including the chi-square test, independent and paired-sample t-tests, bivariate correlations, regression and univariate and repeated measures ANOVA using realtime data. After completing this course, the student should be able to obtain descriptive statistics, create a frequency table, create a cross tabulation table, perform a chi-square test of independence, use t-tests, conduct regression analysis, and specify basic ANOVA models using SAS. Certification Exam: After taking the SAS Advanced Programming Course, students are encouraged to take the SAS Certified Advanced Programmer credential for SAS 9 exam.

JAVA Introduction to Java - CIS321 Computer Languages (Java): Java is one of the most widely used languages in practice today. Java technology is both a programming language and a platform. Java, a high-level third-generation language, can be used to write computer applications that process numbers and words, play games, store data, or achieve any of the innumerable goals for which software has been designed. Because Java is a simple, practical and accessible code, students new to the subject can become proficient in a short period of time. Certification Exam: After students complete the Introduction to Java course, they are encouraged to take the JAVA certification exam. Upon passing the exam, the student will receive the Sun Certified Programmer for the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition 6 certificate. Java GUI - CIS323 Java GUI: This course extends the level of certificate training presented in the introductory course. This session emphasizes Java Swing, a toolkit of Java Foundation Classes, defines the look and feel of the graphical user interface (GUI). Java Swing streamlines the design of Java GUI and allows users to create an attractive and efficient GUI that can be customized for relevant applications. In sixteen classes, students will be exposed to the history, basic concepts, and core features of the language. Click here for more detail about our Java training program
