Creating a SAS Account (Enterprise Miner)
We will be working with SAS Enterprise Miner tool for the Data Analytics part. To do this, you need to create an account with SAS. The instructions are provided here (click here).
The registration is free but it takes SAS a couple of days to approve your account (and verify that you are a student). So make sure to complete your registration AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
SAS OnDemand requires that you have the Java Runtime Environment installed on your computer. The labs have this, but your home PC may not.
Mac users: Java should come pre-installed with OSX. Check here for more information.
So first, get the right version of the Java environment here (you can also get it from the Java web site by going through the setup instructions, but this is easier).
Then follow the instructions step-by-step to create your account. It’s not difficult, but there are a lot of steps and you must follow them carefully.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
