Course Abstract:	This course is designed to teach participants how to get data from a variety of relational databases. We teach access to the specific databases used in the organization. Data can be imported into SAS from these databases for analysis and then loaded back into these databases and spreadsheets. This class covers the optimization techniques available with SAS, SQL and external databases, but does not teach how to write SQL. Refer to the Processing course to learn more about SQL. This course focuses on using the SAS/ACCESS® technique of reading and writing data from relational database management systems and external third party software.
