Basic Statistics Using SAS JMP® Software

Duration: 1.0 day CEUs: 0.6

AUDIENCE
This course is designed around the complete understanding of a self-contained package that allows for data analysis, sophisticated graphing in two or more dimensions and intense statistical reporting. It is completely menu-driven. Students will learn to take data, restructure, manipulate, join, append to it in a graphical environment to understand relationships in the data and be able to identify correlations, Fit Tests, regressions, distributions and more.

BENEFITS
Attendees will learn to:
• Access all forms of data
• Create interactive, graphical analyses
• Join, append and restructure data
• Perform advanced, applied statistics
• Perform descriptive statistics
• Filter, sort and transform data
• Calculate new variables and transform existing ones
• Create one and two way analysis
• Create various linear regression models
• Perform Fit tests

PREREQUISITES
Understand the basics of a Windowing environment and some knowledge of statistics such as hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, p-values, t-tests and regression analysis.
