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.

I think the course material and the SAS practices/activities/demos were very helpful, however, I didn't like the style of the quiz questions which was very different from the practices.
