Title: Point. Click. Report. Access, analyze and summarize institutional data from your desktop using SAS Enterprise Guide

Presenter: Tom Bohannan, Ph.D., Former Director of Institutional Research, Baylor University. Currently, Analytical Consultant with SAS

Overview: This webinar demonstrates the menu driven tasks in SAS Enterprise Guide 4.2, the point-and-click interface to SAS, to perform common institutional research tasks: querying, reporting, and analyzing data. SAS Enterprise Guide provides a graphical interface that helps you exploit the power of SAS and publish dynamic results in a Microsoft Windows client application. While you can write, submit, and generate SAS programming code using SAS Enterprise Guide, this webinar does not cover the SAS programming language.

Who Should Attend: Analysts and managers who do not have SAS programming experience, yet need to access, manage, and summarize data from different sources and present results in tables and graphs, and perform statistical analysis.

Benefit to the IR community: A growing portion of institutional research offices are incorporating both the SAS programming language as well as Enterprise Guide, the point-and-click interface to SAS. This webinar will show how both options can reside in one office, as Enterprise Guide can be used to import, read, and process code, as well as be the sole interface for those analysts who prefer a purely graphical interface from which to generate reports.
