Excellent! This class was super well constructed with great activities and demos in SAS Studio. The instructor was wonderful at explaining everything as well. I learned a lot and really enjoyed it.

This course offers a solid foundation to anyone who is interested in beginning to use SAS. I have found the demos, activites and practices to be fairly easy yet still required me to use my brain.

The content is good for the basics, but there is a lack of continuity between the explainations, activities, and quizzes. Several sections took many days to complete because the quiz questions were not covered in the material presented, resulting in a guess-and-check approach. This is after going through the videos and content multiple times, reviewing careful notes and the course handouts, and going through the SAS documentation pages.

Very difficult to learn online (for me anyway). The instructions in the quizzes are unclear and presume a certain baseline knowledge of the programming language. Hope to take an in-person class one day.
